Root cifs.ko module

So, for some reason Alcatel left us the ability to load and unload modules in the stock kernel. Yay for us! If you've not noticed, the proper source for our device was posted back in March. I haven't checked to see if we have quite enough info to build modules that should match our kernel, but I have high hopes. I'll be attempting to build the cifs.ko module this week, to add native samba/cifs mounting to our devices. If there are other modules that people have interest in, please feel free to point me at them, and I'll see if anything can be done for them.

Gravity box and xblast tools would be nice. If they would work
 
Those would both be xposed modules, as opposed to kernel modules. Nothing I can do about those. Kernel modules tend to be things like drivers for unsupported OTG devices, filesystem support like NTFS and CIFS/SMB, and even things like additional cpu governers and potential overclocking/etc.
