Can you please outline what the differences between this driver and
UML's block driver are?

While UML and LKL have different goals they could at least share some drivers.
UML also has networking drivers you could reuse.
Maybe it would make sense to integrate LKL completely into arch/um if
we find a nice way
to combine them.
CONFIG_UML_LIBRARY, hmm?
Would be a nice opportunity to clear away some dung from arch/um and
refactor it. :-)
