nommu mode does not support user processes but it must support kernel
threads as part as the normal kernel work-flow. It uses host operations
to create and terminate host threads that are going to run the kernel
threads. It also uses semaphores to synchronize those threads and to
allow the Linux kernel scheduler to control how the kernel threads
run.
Each kernel thread runs in a host threads and has a host semaphore
associated with it - the thread's scheduling semaphore. The semaphore
counter is initialized to 0. The first thing a kernel thread does
after getting spawned, before running any kernel code, is to perform a
down operation to block the thread.
The kernel controls host threads scheduling by performing up and down
operations on the scheduling semaphore. In __switch_context an up
operation on the next thread is performed to wake up a blocked thread,
and a down operation is performed on the prev thread to block it.
A thread is terminated by marking it in free_thread_info and
performing an up operation on the scheduling semaphore at which point
the marked thread will terminate itself.
UML common part (process.c) is extended to call idle functions of
SUBARCH as well as kernel thread detection with a flag information of
TIF_HOST_THREAD.
