Well, I'm happy to do it either which way. I'll go ahead and write
up an ad hoc solution for this case, unless it turns out to actually
be bigger than one of the generic codes.
Note you could export these specific values via procfs/sysfs.
Just an idea...
After thinking about it some more, I decided to drop the information into a file in the
rootfs. That way there is no "normal runtime" memory footprint, which would be the main
reason to avoid the normal drivers.
The kernel side of the patch is attached for review; there is obviously also a kinit side
which I haven't written yet (I'll try to finish the whole thing this evening.)
