Hmm, does it mean that it starts kernel from process context?
I'd assume that it is not only kernel who expects MSP. So, what
if RTOS you mentioned want to boot other RTOS (even itself)? What
if you have no access to the source code for those RTOS(es) to
patch MSP/PSP switch?
I'd very much prefer to keep stack switching logic outside kernel,
say, in some shim which RTOS/bootloader can maintain.
