One issue though would be the question of whether or not this would even
be legal... The GPL/IPL incompatibility is resolved through the
separation of the module. Does this problem get worse if you managed to
link staticly with the kernel itself?

That's a good question. I don't think having this feature would create licensing problems for OpenAFS. However, a kernel binary which had OpenAFS compiled in would contain both GPL and GPL-incompatible code. Such a kernel could be used, but could not be distributed without violating the terms of one or both licenses.
