Hm. While testing the patch [1] together with the one Roman calls
linuxolator patch I got a panic (on AMD64). The kernel is GENERIC with
deleted:
options        COMPAT_LINUX32
options        LINPROCFS
options        LINSYSFS

Loading/unloading of linux.ko and linprocfs.ko works like a
charm. Loading of linsysfs works either. But unloading of linsysfs
gives a panic when I logged via ssh. I see a panic message on the
screen of the testing machine but the system does not respord to
keyboard. If I do unloading of linsysfs on the console the system just
hangs without any messages. In both cases only reset button helps.
