Nice article.

May be you would like to add below points as well.

1. Some pointers on context switch when system call is invoked.
2. Data transfer between user and kernel mode in brief.
3. Mention of user mode helper calls in kernel.

I am not sure what scope you have planned though? but I think these
points will help.

  that's all outside the scope of what i was going for, i'm trying to
keep these things really brief and focused.  later on, i'll go back
and piece them together into official courseware.
