-p -P doesn't make much sense since no module will be loaded.

Add the MODCTL_NO_PROP flag to tell the kernel to ignore <module>.prop.

you to delete vars from the existing <module>.prop file.

Add a "-m plist" option. This option will read in an existing

<module>.prop file and merge any options supplied on the "command
line".
This code will serve as the basis for in-kernel merging.

Add -p option which outputs a property list suitable for loading with a
...
module. This is in preparation for having the kernel load an optional
<module>.prop alongside a module, which is useful for passing options
to autoloaded modules and modules loaded at boot time.

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.
