Being insecure should also be a no-no.

Not sure what Jiri thinks but for the moment I think we need to push it
with a module option as to whether hangup on console is enabled or not.

I don't want to just break the existing user space, but leaving other
vendors systems insecure just to cover Fedora's backside is also not
entirely fair either.
