info test patch to parse tainted modules with multiple signs none

Description Guangze Bai 2012-01-13 03:37:41 UTC 
Description of problem:

Run v7 info with specifically built module which is a non GPL, unsigned module.

# modprobe non_gpl_mod
# cat /proc/sys/kernel/tainted
65
# cat /proc/modules | grep non_gpl_mod
non_gpl_mod 34688 0 - Live 0xffffffff88a23000 (PU)

# v7 run -t info
<snip>

Subtest: Kernel - Check OS kernel build, version
+ rpm -ql kernel-2.6.18-303.el5
Error: Please remove the non-GPL modules.
Error: could not determine if kernel is tainted
Boot Parameters: ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet crashkernel=129M@32M
FAIL

</snip>

It is confusing that v7 says it cannot determine if kernel tainted.
