I think it will take a lot of time and work. To check if you really want
to do it here is a recent article:
https://people.kernel.org/linusw/the-arm32-scheduling-and-kernelspace-userspace-boundary
Try to read and understand it. It links to some code, so try to read and
understand that too. If you get stuck on something, do some research and
ask questions. After that you should have a better idea if you like it
and want to continue.
