- Added mutex_trylock()
- Implemented most of exchange_registers()
- thread_control() now needs a lock for operations that can modify thread context.
- thread_start() does not initialise scheduler flags, now done in thread_create.
TODO:
- Fork/clone'ed threads should retain their context in tcb, not syscall stack.
- exchange_registers() calls in userspace need cleaning up.
Child needs rewound function stack in order to reach registers r9-r12
that have original userspace values. But we jump to return_from_syscall
without rewinding the stack. Therefore to ease context restore, we save
r9-r12 on the stack as well upon syscall entry.
This copies the parent kernel stack to child only for the part where
the previous context is saved. Then the child registers are modified
so that it would begin execution from returning of the system call.
