--- Comment #5 from Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahtinen at linux.intel.com> ---
The solution for the user is simply not to set unsafe kernel options. When
updating the kernel, the cmdline is kept intact, so when updating the kernel
the currently inactive unsafe option might become active. Taint is supposed to
highlight that.
