for adding CONFIG_RH_DEPRECATED support

RH-Acked-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@redhat.com>
Bugzilla: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/1565704
Build Info: https://brewweb.engineering.redhat.com/brew/taskinfo?taskID=15910441
Upstream: RHEL Only
Test: Sanity boot of brew build. Previous private build testing of functions.
rh_taint.c adds the following functions which are utilized by Red Hat to
indicate limited or no support for hardware and/or drivers.
mark_hardware_unsupported
mark_hardware_deprecated
mark_tech_preview
See code comments for usage.
RHEL8 change: TAINT_AUX will be used in place of TAINT_TECH_PREVIEW as it
limits the number RHEL only changes that must be made to the kernel.
If at a later date it is determined that additional flags are required,
the associated RHEL only infrastructure can be added at that time.

rh_taint: add support for marking driver as unsupported
Message-id: <f42d35b07bd02f34b14a6341a219c80b21a8aff9.1524523802.git.jtoppins@redhat.com>

Bugzilla: 1565704
RH-Acked-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@redhat.com>
RH-Acked-by: David Arcari <darcari@redhat.com>
In some cases a driver needs to be enabled by Red Hat to support internal
testing but the driver is not intended to be supported on customer hardware.
This adds a function "make_driver_unsupported()" to facilitate such
situations. The function will print a kernel log message.

rh_taint: correct loaddable module support dependencies

O-Subject: [ARK PATCH RESEND v2 4/8] [kernel] rh_taint: correct loaddable module support dependencies
Bugzilla: 1652266
RH-Acked-by: Jakub Racek <jracek@redhat.com>
RH-Acked-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@redhat.com>
RH-Acked-by: Cornelia Huck <cohuck@redhat.com>
Bugzilla: 1652266
Build Info: https://brewweb.engineering.redhat.com/brew/taskinfo?taskID=19252944
Upstream Status: RHEL_only
The kernel configuration for the s390/zfcpdump kernel variant turns
loaddable module support off. The build breaks in rh_taint.c due to
compiler errors caused by dereferencing struct module variables which
is just a declaration if CONFIG_MODULES is not set.
To solve this build break, access struct module members only if
CONFIG_MODULES is enabled.
Upstream Status: RHEL only
