Hi Josh,

I owe you (and others) update...

- I split up the patch set (but it is still not nice enough)
- Konstantin's changes are merged
- I removed a dependency on modinfo and made some changes

But much more importantly. Joao (CC'd) took it over from now on. He can 
help us with userspace tooling in the future too. I am sure there is 
going to be faster progress with it now, because something has always 
distracted me recently :/ and it is important to finish it.

Regards,
Miroslav
