Hi, I am the OP and the author of the module. I had been in a situation where I wanted to track if my system was being used without my knowledge. I had my reasons. The person whom I suspected had reasonable hold on Linux. So I though it would be best to camouflage the module. `kisni` was influenced by `aesni_intel`.

I agree. Maybe he's implying something about linux being multi-user.
