Is there any way that evlog could be modified
such that it could be entirely contained as
a loadable module?  ie: no kernel patch required?

The reason I ask is that CGL vendors like RedHat
and HP have no desire to support CGL installations
in which the kernel is tainted or changed from
the kernel they ship.  This is a big issue for
us since RH flat out refuses to support any kernel
that has evlog in it and other CGL vendors (ie: HP)
would only do it in a support contract for a
huge amount of $$.  

Having evlog as a loadable module which wouldn't
need a kernel patch would be a lifesaver.  Is there
any technical way evlog could go in that direction?
