Subject: [53/61] ACPI: Limit access to custom_method when the kernel is locked
down
Origin: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs.git/commit?id=c333ace27a3115f2b56f25987bdb7ef05f71836c
custom_method effectively allows arbitrary access to system memory, making
it possible for an attacker to circumvent restrictions on module loading.
Disable it if the kernel is locked down.
