Linus Torvalds 1ec6574a3c This set of changes updates init and user mode helper tasks to be 
ordinary user mode tasks.
 
 In commit 40966e316f ("kthread: Ensure struct kthread is present for
 all kthreads") caused init and the user mode helper threads that call
 kernel_execve to have struct kthread allocated for them.  This struct
 kthread going away during execve in turned made a use after free of
 struct kthread possible.
 
 The commit 343f4c49f2 ("kthread: Don't allocate kthread_struct for
 init and umh") is enough to fix the use after free and is simple enough
 to be backportable.
 
 The rest of the changes pass struct kernel_clone_args to clean things
 up and cause the code to make sense.
 
 In making init and the user mode helpers tasks purely user mode tasks
 I ran into two complications.  The function task_tick_numa was
 detecting tasks without an mm by testing for the presence of
 PF_KTHREAD.  The initramfs code in populate_initrd_image was using
 flush_delayed_fput to ensuere the closing of all it's file descriptors
 was complete, and flush_delayed_fput does not work in a userspace thread.
 
 I have looked and looked and more complications and in my code review
 I have not found any, and neither has anyone else with the code sitting
 in linux-next.
