[PATCH] s390 qeth: Convert to use the kthread API

From: Eric W. Biederman
Date: Thu Apr 19 2007 - 03:08:08 EST


From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx> - unquoted

This patch modifies the qeth_recover thread to be started
with kthread_run not a combination of kernel_thread and
daemonize. Resulting in slightly simpler and more maintainable
code.
