 * 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 (errno is not set).
