Nope, not yet. Acme suggested I export only the stuff I need. But you can definitely add them there since I have the Makefiles adjusted and you'd have to move the .[ch] files and adjust the includes.
Here's what's there so far:
lib/lk/ |-- cpumap.c |-- cpumap.h |-- ctype.c |-- debugfs.c |-- debugfs.h |-- Makefile |-- thread_map.c |-- thread_map.h |-- types.h |-- usage.c |-- util.c |-- util.h |-- xyarray.c `-- xyarray.h

Ok, I'll let you know when I have it done.
