[PATCH] livepatch/module: make TAINT_LIVEPATCH module-specific

[Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com>]

There's no reliable way to determine which module tainted the kernel
with CONFIG_LIVEPATCH.  For example, /sys/module/<klp module>/taint
doesn't report it.  Neither does the "mod -t" command in the crash tool.

Make it crystal clear who the guilty party is by converting
CONFIG_LIVEPATCH to a module taint flag.

This changes the behavior a bit: now the the flag gets set when the
module is loaded, rather than when it's enabled.
