Unloaded tainted modules list with tcrypt

When repeatedly using the tcrypt module (which is designed to never
load successfully), the "Unloaded tainted modules" list grows forever:
Unloaded tainted modules: tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1
tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1
tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1
tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1
tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1
tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1
tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1
tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1
tcrypt():1 tcrypt():1 padlock_aes():1 padlock_aes():1
isst_if_mbox_msr():1 acpi_cpufreq():1 pcc_cpufreq():1 isst_if_mbox_msr():1
acpi_cpufreq():1 pcc_cpufreq():1 acpi_cpufreq():1 acpi_cpufreq():1
pcc_cpufreq():1 isst_if_mbox_msr():1 acpi_cpufreq():1 acpi_cpufreq():1
pcc_cpufreq():1 isst_if_mbox_msr():1 acpi_cpufreq():1 acpi_cpufreq():1
isst_if_mbox_msr():1 isst_if_mbox_msr():1
acpi_cpufreq():1 pcc_cpufreq():1 acpi_cpufreq():1 isst_if_mbox_msr():1
Some other modules like acpi_cpufreq() are repeated too.
Maybe this check after the name comparison:
mod_taint->taints & mod->taints
should be:
mod_taint->taints == mod->taints
or shouldn't be there at all?
