Hell no.

This is an example of how to do things WRONG. In short, it's not an
example we want to have in the kernel, or anywhere _near_ the kernel.

Do it right, or don't do it at all. Code this bad should not be allowed to
exist, please remove it from your harddisk immediately. I will go and wash
my eyes from just having looked at it.
