Merge Request: https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/merge_requests/1603
NOTE: Truncated patchset due to missing public @redhat.com email
      address on your GitLab profile at https://gitlab.com/-/profile.
      Once that is fixed, close and reopen the merge request to
      retrigger sending the emails.

This is to add a new kernel taint flag that indicates that this
is a Partner Supported GPL module and not directly Supported
by Red Hat, as per the policy document for partner Supported
upstream kernel modules as linked from the bugzilla.

Use of rh_flags is deemed not appropriate in this case as that mechanism was
developed with the intent of not tainting the kernel in a common scenario,
where as in this case this taint flag
1.  is for a rare scenario so we need high visibility on it
2.  will trigger a different support workflow

Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2038999
Upstream Status: RHEL only
