Hi Elliott,

Please note, any module that does not carry a taint should _not_
be on the aforementioned list. See the following which is already
in Linus' tree:

commit 47cc75aa92837a9d3f15157d6272ff285585d75d
Author: Aaron Tomlin <atomlin@redhat.com>
Date: Fri Oct 7 14:38:12 2022 +0100

module: tracking: Keep a record of tainted unloaded modules only

This ensures that no module record/or entry is added to the
unloaded_tainted_modules list if it does not carry a taint.
