Simple but useful message log to the user in case of module appraise is
forced and fails due to the lack of file descriptor, that might be
caused by kmod calls to compressed modules.

   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You should probably use scripts/checkpatch.pl on your proposed
patches
before sending them.

You've got a lot of tabs and spaces after every line continuation.
Please coalesce the format on a single line and avoid this defect.

			pr_err("impossible to appraise a module without a file descriptor. sig_enforce kernel parameter might help\n");

cheers, Joe

Oh gosh, sorry for that. You're right. I'll post a v3, changing to the
way you pointed, soon.

Thanks!
