It's possible that I'm doing something wrong, but I'm getting panics with
returning from a syscall with a lock held.  I have a project that I need to
finish up for my classes, here, so I shouldn't spend more time on this for
a few days.  If anyone really wants a core before then, let me know, but
I'm pretty sure that my libafs.ko doesn't have debugging symbols,
so it's probably not worth it.
