Thank you all for very quick response. I feel a bit stupid, just realized that module was
actually compiled in after applying patch to kernel :)

However, when I try to do modprobe on apparmor, it fails with following message in dmesg:

--------------

apparmor: Unknown symbol audit_log_vformat
apparmor: Unknown symbol namespace_sem

--------------

Any ideas?
