please propagate something like this into tests/ and create a series of 
unit tests like the lockdep self-tests that prints out a series of 
WARN()n if it doesnt work or so. It's useful for you too when you are 
hacking on it.

Plus an anti-NIH suggestion: you could reuse much of the syslets series 
i did - sans the ugly syscall ABI bits. The submit/completion bits were 
pretty mature.
