[Devel] [PATCH] macintosh/therm_windtunnel.c: Convert to kthread API.

[Eric W. Biederman]

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

Start the g4fand using kthread_run not a combination
of kernel_thread and deamonize.  This makes the code
a little simpler and more maintainable.
