Subject: [PATCH] kexec: Disable at runtime if the kernel enforces module
6a91557
 loading restrictions
6a91557
6a91557
kexec permits the loading and execution of arbitrary code in ring 0, which
6a91557
is something that module signing enforcement is meant to prevent. It makes
6a91557
sense to disable kexec in this situation.
