Quoting from a private email about this bug:

So, I don't think any of us here at the kernel sprint (including three
SRU team members and two release team members) read "kernel freeze" as
"no new uploads of the kernel, period", but rather that if uploads
happen, they'll only be to address critical bugs as driven by the
release team, with no other changes.

That said, adding a userspace blacklist is right, regardless, so that
we don't explode on custom compiled kernerls that have that module
enabled, etc. When the bug is fixed upstream, we can revert the hack.

I will, however, also be assigning a kernel task to this to turn off
the module for the first SRU kernel after release.
