This works fine here, and looks good.
The use of task_struct->vfork_done is a bit confusing, as there's no
documentation (that I could find) about what vfork_done means for
kthreads. From the code, it looks to just be a copy of
kthread->exited, which is much more obvious a name.
Would it make sense to either (a) replace this with a call to
to_kthread(), and kthread->exited, or (b) add a comment explaining
what vfork_done means here. kthread_stop() itself is using
to_kthread() and kthread->exited -- even though task_struct is also
there -- so I'd feel a bit more comfortable with that option.
Otherwise,
