Btw, it's not just the commit history. The actual file layout is
terminally horrible too. The actual LWN article made it look like ktap
was just a user-space tool, and I was thinking that it was like
tools/pert/, just in staging.

But looking at the tree, it looks like parts of it is a kernel module,
and parts of it is the user space thing, and it's totally impossible
to see which is which, it's just all mixed up in the same directory
structure.

Maybe I misunderstood, but that was my reaction from a very quick look.
