The kthread one looks like you will have to change a bit of the code,
all of the other remaining ones should be self-explanatory.  If not,
please let us know and we'll be glad to help out.

Can you also work to address all of the review comments made on the code
so far as well?  I don't know how much time you have to work on this,
but for now I'll let you send me changes and not do anything on the code
myself.  Sound good?
