[KERNEL][LP][CAF] BlueMoon r1.0 [19/9]

BlueMoon Kernel

CAF Kernel for Google Nexus 5

About:
BlueMoon Kernel is custom kernel for Google Nexus 5, built up on CAF sources. My goal is to make featurefull kernel, which would provide good battery life as well. I made this kernel on CAF source because i find CAF ROM builds a lot more stable and smooth and, the most important, battery friendly. I can't promise anything, but maybe i will make AOSP version in future, too. This kernel is my daily driver for quite long time now, i was improving it and adding features, and now i can say that it's daily driver ready, i decided to share it here on XDA. I am not professional, and i am not here to make the best kernel or something. I am actualy 15 years old, and i love to learn. This kernel is just my try to learn something new, and i did it i think. But almost nothing from here is my work. So please take a look at credits paragraph, there are guys who need to be thanked that this kernel is here today. Anyway, i am open for new ideas and stuff, i will answer on every PM and if you have problems with this kernel, i will try to solve them with you. But i can't help you, if i don't have a basic info about your setup etc., so please make sure to always provide more information about your configuration.

And even more stuff, check my GitHub history

How to install:
Just flash on CAF ROM in hammerheadcaf twrp recovery. If you came to this point of chosing CAF, i suppose you know how to flash the kernel.

Credits:
I was thinking, and there is too many people to thank. A lot of people motivated me and helped me. The first one was @dadi11 who taught me basics of Android development, so i would like to specially thank him. And to @neobuddy89, because this kernel is based on his amazing work. And i would like to thank everyone in my commit history, because without those guys, there would be no this kernel today.
