* 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
* ttype - 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
* 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).
