Category 2: Always loaded in default install

Rationale: yes you can turn off your firewall.. but nobody should do that.
The others are default-loaded as well
- ip_tables, iptable_filter
- ip6_tables, ip6table_filter
- dm_mod
- ipv6
- battery, ac, button, video, output
I still block loading of ipv6 and friends on lots of machines -- typical
reasons are "memory's limited and IPv6 will never be used" or "IPv6
will
never be used so remove the attack surface"
