[Devel] [PATCH] s390/scsi/zfcp_erp: Convert to use the kthread API

[Eric W. Biederman]

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

Modify zfcperp%s to be started with kthread_run not
a combination of kernel_thread, daemonize and siginitsetinv
making the code slightly simpler and more maintainable.
