Hi,

One minor, possibly irritating comment:

On Sat, Mar 19, 2005 at 11:06:59PM -0500, Jon Smirl was heard to remark:
> 2) New event KOBJ_POST. $POST and

Isn't the standard usage BIST these days, instead of POST?

Its not power-on self test if you run the built-in self-test 
long after its been powered on. ... 

Besides, there's a namespace collision: "post" usually means "after",
which is confusing.  "bist" doesn't have any other meanings.
