[PATCH v4 8/8] module: replace the existing LSM hook in init_module

Hi Kees,

Missing from this patch are the loadpin changes.  Before including
them in the next version of this patch, do you prefer separating the
init_module from the finit_module support in loadpin_read_file() or
keeping it as one function, like Paul for SELinux?
