Subject: [RFC][PATCH v1 1/2] integrity: add ima_module_check hook

IMA measures/appraises modules when modprobe or insmod opens and read them.
Unfortunately, there are no guarantees between what is read by userspace and
what is passed to the kernel via load_module system call. This patch adds a
hook called module_check() to verify the integrity of the module being loaded.
