While fiddling with this code I just noticed that, in my enthusiasm
for stripping the logic to the bare functional minimum, I went
overboard and totally removed the logic to wake up the kworker.

Anyway, this patch is stupid regardless for the reasons above, but
just noting this down in case anyone does read it and wonder how it
can possibly work. It just leaks memory.

If anyone wants to try out this RFC and needs their system to stay
alive for a while, let me know and I'll prepare a branch with this
issue fixed.
