Are you aware that Linus Torvalds personally corrected him on this very issue
in 2003, and they replied back and forth to each other for several messages?
And that KernelTrap covered this thread, which I linked to in the message you
just replied to?
http://kerneltrap.org/node/1758
So are you saying he didn't understand the earlier exchange he had with Linus?
Or that he forgot? Or that when Linus pointed out the difference between
userspace and kernel modules in the linked thread (in both his first and
second replies), he wasn't clear enough?
It's entirely possible I'm wrong here, and if so I'll apologize. I'd just
like to understand how first, please.
