Re: Kernel connector - userspace <-> kernelspace "linker".

Hello,
This looks like a thinly veiled attempt to provide kernel
hooks so that non-GPL user-mode code can execute within
the kernel and trash it. I think the kernel developers
are smart enough so they won't allow any priviliged
kernel-mode 'callback' to user code.

Cheers,
Dick Johnson
