Add the PS3 AV Settings Driver. The AV Settings driver is used to control Audio and Video settings. It communicates with the policy manager through the virtual uart.
please don't use kernel_thread for new code, but rather kthread_create/ ktread_run. And check the possible errors it can return :) Using the kthread infrastructure also means you'll have to redo your synchronisation scheme as it doesn't work very well with this use of semaphores. But that's a good thing as these useages are not easily parseable for most kernel hackers despite beeing tought in OS101 :)
