[PATCH 21/27] x86/mmiotrace: Lock down the testmmiotrace module
From: Matthew Garrett
Date: Wed Mar 06 2019 - 19:00:26 EST
From: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx>
The testmmiotrace module shouldn't be permitted when the kernel is locked
down as it can be used to arbitrarily read and write MMIO space.
