Thank you Valdis for the quick response.
Noted, I will see with the developer if he can still create a branch to document his modifications...

Oh geez. Don't checkin a copy of the entire kernel. Make your project be a
branch off the kernel. Ain't nobody gonna dig through that to find what parts
of an old kernel the Linux-DSM code has messed with.
And you'll get smacked around with a large trout for starting a project 13 days
ago, and using an archaeological kernel as the base rather than 5.4 or later.
4.9 is close to 3 years ago.
[/usr/src/linux-next] git diff --shortstat v4.9..HEAD

So yes... something probably splattered all over part of the kernel code.
Either that, or somebody did a branch to what they thought was a function
pointer but was actually a pointer to an anthill in eastern Zimbabwe or
something.
But nobody wants to dig through your github tree to figure out what you did....
