Hi all,

        Updated my in-kernel module loader patch. Importantly, it
lacks almost all features, but it serves as a guide for the curious.
Non-x86 parts not even compiled (but tested in userspace previously,
so just some bitrot).

Name: New Module Loader Base
Author: Rusty Russell
Status: Tested on 2.5.27

D: This patch is a rewrite of the kernel module code, simplifying it
D: into an in-kernel module loader. Note that this patch does not
D: contain any arch-specific modifications (see separate per-arch
D: patches). Nor does it support:
D: o Module unloading
D: o Modversions
D: o Module parameters.
D: o Boot parameters.
D: To use it, you will need the trivial replacement module tools from
