Subject: Re: taint/module: Clean up global and module taint flags handling

This should be true here, right? TAINT_LIVEPATCH has been made a
module-specific taint by commit 2992ef29ae ("livepatch/module: make
TAINT_LIVEPATCH module-specific").

I think the rest looks fine, thanks for working on the cleanups.
