It's mostly isolated to net/tux/ , though there are some changes to the
guts of mm/ fs/ net/

Its invasive in the sense that it has patches into core code that need
wiring up to the tux internals, but its nowhere as invasive as say nptl,
or exec-shield.

When the sysctl is disabled the code it runs is 99% the same as
how it was without the tux patch (The difference being in things
like some functions taking extra parameters).
