+ * Name: thread_create
+ *
+ * Description:
+ * This function creates and activates a new thread of the specified type
+ * with a specified priority and returns its system-assigned ID. It is the
+ * internal, commn implementation of task_create() and kernel_thread().
+ * See comments with task_create() for further information.
+ *
+ * Input Parameters:
+ * name - Name of the new task
+ * type - Type of the new task
+ * priority - Priority of the new task
+ * stack_size - size (in bytes) of the stack needed
+ * entry - Entry point of a new task
+ * arg - A pointer to an array of input parameters. Up to
+ * CONFIG_MAX_TASK_ARG parameters may be provided. If fewer
+ * than CONFIG_MAX_TASK_ARG parameters are passed, the list
+ * should be terminated with a NULL argv[] value. If no
+ * parameters are required, argv may be NULL.
+ *
+ * Return Value:
+ * Returns the non-zero process ID of the new task or ERROR if memory is
+ * insufficient or the task cannot be created. The errno will be set to
+ * indicate the nature of the error (always ENOMEM).

+/****************************************************************************
+ * Name: task_create
+ *
+ * Description:
+ * This function creates and activates a new task with a specified
+ * priority and returns its system-assigned ID.
+ *
+ * The entry address entry is the address of the "main" function of the
+ * task. This function will be called once the C environment has been
+ * set up. The specified function will be called with four arguments.
+ * Should the specified routine return, a call to exit() will
+ * automatically be made.
+ *
+ * Note that four (and only four) arguments must be passed for the spawned
+ * functions.
+ *
+ * Input Parameters:
+ * name - Name of the new task
+ * priority - Priority of the new task
+ * stack_size - size (in bytes) of the stack needed
+ * entry - Entry point of a new task
+ * arg - A pointer to an array of input parameters. Up to
+ * CONFIG_MAX_TASK_ARG parameters may be provided. If fewer
+ * than CONFIG_MAX_TASK_ARG parameters are passed, the list
+ * should be terminated with a NULL argv[] value. If no
