No.  They delete all that code entirely and use workqueues instead.  So, I
suppose merging Eric's patches first should be a simple matter of just
deleting his revised code instead.

Do those patches convert all this code over to full use of the kthread
API?  Because it seems that a conversion would be straightforward, and
is needed.

Do those patches convert all this code over to full use of the kthread
API?  Because it seems that a conversion would be straightforward, and
is needed.
