/// Loads a kernel module from a buffer.
///
/// It loads an ELF image into kernel space,
/// performs any necessary symbol relocations,
/// initializes module parameters to values provided by the caller,
/// and then runs the module's init function.
///
/// This function requires `CAP_SYS_MODULE` privilege.
///
/// The `module_image` argument points to a buffer containing the binary image
/// to be loaded. The buffer should contain a valid ELF image
/// built for the running kernel.
///
/// The `param_values` argument is a string containing space-delimited specifications
/// of the values for module parameters.
/// Each of the parameter specifications has the form:
///
/// `name[=value[,value...]]`
///
/// # Example
///
/// ```no_run
/// use std::fs::File;
/// use std::io::Read;
/// use std::ffi::CString;
/// use nix::kmod::init_module;
///
/// let mut f = File::open("mykernel.ko").unwrap();
/// let mut contents: Vec<u8> = Vec::new();
/// f.read_to_end(&mut contents).unwrap();

/// ```
