So is the userspace driver framework (UIO) proposed by Greg KH and co. Now what can be done about these? - making them not-special is not an option due to the established interfaces, which don't allow restartability. - fixing the freezer is pretty much impossible because the dependencies between the tasks cannot be known. - removing the freezer and fixing the drivers seems workable, we already have a prototype in the form of the powermac architecture. It seems pretty clear cut. Whining about how much problems this will cause won't get us nearer to a solution.
