Matthew,
Here's a small patch that replaces kernel_thread() with the kthread API.
There should be no impact on the usu_end_notify completion or the init
semaphore.
thanks for comments,
C.
Replaced kernel_thread() with kthread_run() since kernel_thread() is
deprecated in drivers/modules.
also removed obsolete URL in the MAINTAINERS file.
