modules: inherit TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE
commit 262e6ae7081df304fc625cf368d5c2cbba2bb991 upstream.
If a TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE exports symbol, inherit the taint flag
for all modules importing these symbols, and don't allow loading
symbols from TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE modules if the module previously
imported gplonly symbols. Add a anti-circumvention devices so people
don't accidentally get themselves into trouble this way.

"Ah, the proven-to-be-illegal "GPL Condom" defense :)"
