Are there any kernel/C books or online tutorials you guys think would help? Well, I have to credit you for jumping into the deep end. 8^) You might want to get familiar with C in user space first where if you get it wrong you have an OS and a memory manager on your side to generate a nice clean core file and debuggers like gdb to look at what happened when something goes bad. Bugs in the kernel are notorious for being difficult to track down.
