My only initial reaction is that I absolutely hate the naming (not to say 
I love the code - just to say that I didn't even look at it, because I got 
hung up on the name).

"cr"? It could be anything. I realize that to _you_ that is meaningful, 
but to somebody less specifically interested in checkpoint-restore 'cr' 
means 'carriage return' or just doesn't really say anything at all. 

That goes both for file naming (kernel/cr/xyzzy.c) and to a lesser degree 
for function naming too. I also don't think it makes sense to have 
something like kernel/cr/cr-x86_32.c or kernel/cr/cr-tty.c - maybe that is 
good right now, but I sure hope that the long-term goal is to have these 
things in the code that will need to change them when the code gets 
updated (ie arch/x86/kernel and drivers/char/)
