Thanks!

I still have two patches I didn't submit (suspend/resume, and another that checks
if work_struct is queued before calling flush_work()).
I can volunteer to review future patches to vkms, but unfortunately I don't think I'd
be at capacity to add new features to vkms anymore.

Thank you so much for all your help!
