[KERNEL][AOSP/CM][LINARO] Arsenic Kernel-R2



Hi Folks!
Here i present you Arsenic Kernel. Based on close to AOSP - Slim Kernel, Thanks to @Martinusbe for a perfect and stable base.
Started this project for unofficial builds of ROMS with keeping performance in mind without compromising on battery backup. It was supposed to be included in my personal builds of roms but some users requested to release it for other roms so here it is with anykernel method(thanks to @RJDTWO for anykernel).
zip doesnt offer any module changes and doesnt mess with the ramdisk so you can feel free to dirty flash it over prebuilt kernel or Arsenic's previous versions(Dont forget to clear data of kernel adiutor or anyother kernel control app you're using before).
Keeping op short and simple and with keeping New users in mind, here is a brief description about kernel:


Features:
  • Build with linaro 4.9 toolchain.

  • Device and target flags enhanced, linaro build improvements, etc.

  • Kernel compressed with XZ.

  • Upstream caf fixes and changes.

  • Adreno idler.

  • Krait C-states customizations.

  • SOC Driver Tuneables

  • Options to disable wlan and bluetooth wakelocks.(Use them wisely!)

  • TCP Congestion algos (like westwood,cubic etc).

  • Optimized RWSEM, AES and SHA1 routines (with NEON support).

  • CPU Input Boost

  • Close to AOSP/stock kernel (less bloated with features).

  • Various under the hood Battery and performance improvement patches(Advance users can look at my git, each commit is there with proper explaination).

  • Stability and Battery backup at its Peak!

  • Available Govs: conservative, impulse, interactive, ondemand, performance, powersave, smartmax, userspace, wheatley, yankactive, zzmoove.

  • Available I/O Scheds: row, bfq, fiops, noop, cfq.

Keep in mind:
You can dirty flash it over prebuilt kernel of your rom or any previous version of Arsenic but its always prefered to flash stock kernel or dirty flash your rom if you are already running a custom kernel to avoid any conflicts or problems.

Compatible with both AOSP and CM based roms only.

Bugs and issues:
(reported by a tester) gestures seems to be broken on PA due to their different implementation(?)-need confirmation and a log for it.
