Users of the OnePlus 12 have reported a frustrating issue with KernelSU in GKI mode. After installing a system update, root permissions for some apps become randomly revoked. This means that apps that were previously granted root access may lose their privileges, leading to functionality issues.

This problem appears inconsistent, with reports ranging from 2 out of 10 authorized apps retaining root access to a significant portion of apps losing their permissions.

In addition to root permission issues, users have also observed the list of uninstalled modules in KernelSU occasionally resetting to default after a system update.

This issue doesn't seem to affect the OnePlus 13, suggesting hardware-specific factors or differences in the GKI implementation between the two devices.

**Steps to Reproduce:**

1. On your OnePlus 12, ensure KernelSU is installed.
2. Download and install a system update via the system update app.
3. Reboot your phone after the update is installed.
4. Verify the KernelSU authorization list.

**Expected Behavior:**

After a system update, your KernelSU authorization settings and uninstalled module configurations should remain intact.

**Impact:**

The random revocation of root permissions can disrupt the functionality of apps that rely on them, causing inconvenience and frustration for users. The resetting of uninstalled module lists also adds to the user management burden.
