init/builtins.cpp: Switch to finit_module
Switch insmod from using init_module to finit_module. From
"man finit_module":
The finit_module() system call is like init_module(), but reads the
module to be loaded from the file descriptor fd. It is useful when the
authenticity of a kernel module can be determined from its location in
the file system; in cases where that is possible, the overhead of
using cryptographically signed modules to determine the authenticity
of a module can be avoided.
finit_module is preferred over init_module because it allows LSMs, such
as SELinux, to perform a permission check on kernel module loads based on
the file from which the module is loaded. This functionality is not yet
implemented in the Linux kernel, but is on the SEAndroid TODO list.
