    I understand that you are planning to remove the security hooks that are related 
    to modules (kernel/module.c).
    
    I am looking at the LSM framework ,as part of a student project, and I might
    need to use the module hooks.
    
    But a question first:
    
    Why would you want to remove the module hooks ?
    Is the LSM framework specific to the current LSMs out there ,ie LIDS,Capab,
    SElinux,owlsm, dte .
    
    What if someone develops a sec module (later on from now) that would take
    advantage of these hooks ? Would the maintainers put them back in?
    
    Thanks
