Peter Zijlstra b433c3d454 init, sched: Fix race between init and kthreadd
Ilya reported that on a very slow machine he could reliably
reproduce a race between forking init and kthreadd. We first
fork init so that it  obtains pid-1, however since the scheduler
is already fully running at this point it can preempt and run
the init thread before we spawn and set kthreadd_task.

The init thread can then attempt spawning kthreads without
kthreadd being present which results in an OOPS.
