implement support for forced LKM load, which makes the kernel skip
...
the version checks, using new -f flag and LMFORCE ioctl
Hopefully the description in the manpage is discouraging enough so that
nobody would dare even _think_ of using forced loads. A warning
message is written to stderr when this is used, just in case.
