    2) Namespace

       Several people including Linus requested to change the KAISER name.

       We came up with a list of technically correct acronyms:

         User Address Space Separation, prefix uass_

         Forcefully Unmap Complete Kernel With Interrupt Trampolines, prefix fuckwit_

        Kernel Page Table Isolation, prefix kpti_

       Linus, your call :)
