module: Enable dynamic debugging regardless of taint
Dynamic debugging is currently disabled for tainted modules, except
for TAINT_CRAP. This prevents use of dynamic debugging for
out-of-tree modules once the next patch is applied.
This condition was apparently intended to avoid a crash if a force-
loaded module has an incompatible definition of dynamic debug
structures. However, a administrator that forces us to load a module
is claiming that it *is* compatible even though it fails our version
checks. If they are mistaken, there are any number of ways the module
could crash the system.
As a side-effect, proprietary and other tainted modules can now use
dynamic_debug.
