[Devel] [PATCH] s390/net/lcs: Convert to the kthread API

[Eric W. Biederman]

From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm at xmission.com> - unquoted

Use kthread_run to start the lcs kernel threads not a
combination of kernel_thread and daemonize.  This makes
the code slightly simpler and more maintainable.
