Enumerating badness

As I understand it, these are more the effect of RH asking the vendors to please define a
consistent interface so they can use an interface that's already there, instead of using
appalling hooks deep into the kernel from binary-only modules (overwriting things in the
sys_call_table, finding file_operations structures and overwriting their pointers, that sort
of thing). Even a nasty kernel interface is better than *that*.
