Within the open routine of my module I need to open another device; and the
write routine needs to write to the other device.
User space system calls seem to be unavailable to module code.
I know about swapping the DS and ES to fake out other modules; then using
sys_write etc.
Can my code just include the standard syscall lib and use them from kernel
space?
My module code would also like to use user space malloc, is this a problem?
