No - IIRC the original patch (for the switch of cifs from

iii) Is it difficult to switch to the new interface?
No, I don't think so, but I have not investigated it. We would be happy
to review and test a patch for this though.

It seems to me that I rewrote cifs_demultiplex_thread to use
kthread_run in DFS patch.
Yes - Q's patch has the final change to kthread (as part of a larger
DFS change). The original
patch which switched to kthread was done long before this.
I have not broken all the large dfs patch into small pieces but will
look to see if just this part
can be done easily
