Yes, the specific syscall can load its module. (I'd still like to have
some more control which modules are eligible -- I certainly don't
want binary emulations loaded automatically.)
If I understand it correctly, with Nicolas' proposal an innocent
"sysctl -a" would load the semaphore module. I don't have a better
idea yet, but this approach doesn't scale -- if done for more
modules all of them would be loaded with this single "sysctl"
invocation.
