[PATCH] module load notification try 2

From: John Levon (levon@movementarian.org)
Date: Tue Mar 18 2003 - 10:59:54 EST

Rusty, any happier with this one ?

The below implements a module load notification for oprofile's benefit.
The oprofile part is not attached here, but seems to work OK.

regards
john
