Solid is part of the KDE Development Platform but does not depend on other 
parts of it (well, libsolid doesn't, libsolidcontrol seems to link with 
libkdecore).

I am not sure what you mean with "use it with the kernel". Solid's 
architecture allows it to implement its functionality in different backends so 
it is most likely possible to use kernel facilities of  whatever operating 
system you want to use it on.

Cheers,
Kevin
