    Be bad: overwrite init_module in sys_call_table.  You can write a module
    that'll do it.  I guess the trick is getting it to run regardless of what
    people do to init.
    
    But seriously, I would agree that a switch to turn off further
    insertion of modules would be nice.  We have to make sure that our
    generalized framework will allow for such.  Modules can be very powerful,
    both for good and evil.
