RE: [Fault-injection-developer] naming used for kernel components

[Zhuang, L. <lou...@in...>]

Good ideas! We'll separate FITH into two parts, one is user level, the other
is patch and kernel module... About name convention... let's do some
change... 

P.S. ASLT is an Address  Translator. We stolen the name from XSLT. Sorry for
my odd naming :-)
