modules: Enabled dynamic debugging for staging modules
Driver modules from the staging directory are marked 'tainted' by module.c. Subsequently, tainted modules are denied dynamic debugging. This is unwanted behavior, since staging modules should be able to use the dynamic debugging mechanism. Please merge this also into the staging-linus branch.
