I wonder if this is really what you want, but anyway ...

Yeah, I saw it and I thought this would be the case. Why not simply
add a menuconfig entry and mark it EXPLOSIVE/HAZARDOUS? You're the
new masquerading code maintainer for 2.2.x anyways :)

Doesn't compile, sched.c mistake ;) I actually still use it. The only
big problem I have there is that we have this braindamaged alias support
with every alias having an own device struct. Very funny, if you have
more then 100 devices considering dev_alloc_name() in ../core/dev.c
and other nasty things. And the small problems are the 4MB of patches
I have which impossibly can go into mainstream.

LOL! Aha, lucky, ok, I'll give it a whirl.

I hope I find time, still have to prepare the workshop and total lack
of sleep.
Thanks for the clarifications, I will certainly urge the people
attending
the course to patch in your fresh patch :)
