The 1st patch (replace kthread_create..) replace the kthread_create and wake_up_process with a call to kthread_run.
The 2nd patch changes the library API uisthread_start and uisthread_stop to use the kthread API. The 3rd patch and 4th patch checks on kthread_should_stop instead of checking should_stop variable. The 5th patch removes the variables should_stop and KILL as they are no longer required. All patches applies on next-20150120 cleanly. All the patches are compile tested on X86_64 allmodconfig.
