 * Name: nxtask_init
 *
 * Description:
 *   This function initializes a Task Control Block (TCB) in preparation for
 *   starting a new thread.  It performs a subset of the functionality of
 *   task_create()
 *
 *   Unlike task_create():
 *     1. Allocate the TCB.  The pre-allocated TCB is passed in argv.
 *     2. Allocate the stack.  The pre-allocated stack is passed in argv.
 *     3. Activate the task. This must be done by calling nxtask_activate().
 *
 *   Certain fields of the pre-allocated TCB may be set to change the
 *   nature of the created task.  For example:
 *
 *     - Task type may be set in the TCB flags to create  kernel thread
 *     - If a custom stack is used, i.e., one allocated, managed, and freed
 *       by the caller, then TCB_FLAG_CUSTOM_STACK should be set in the
 *       TCB flags.
 *
 * Input Parameters:
 *   tcb        - Address of the new task's TCB
 *   name       - Name of the new task (not used)
 *   priority   - Priority of the new task
 *   stack      - Start of the pre-allocated stack
 *   stack_size - Size (in bytes) of the stack allocated
 *   entry      - Application start point of the new task
 *   argv       - A pointer to an array of input parameters.  The array
 *                should be terminated with a NULL argv[] value. If no
 *                parameters are required, argv may be NULL.
 *
 * Returned Value:
 *   OK on success; negative error value on failure appropriately.  (See
 *   nxtask_setup_scheduler() for possible failure conditions).  On failure,
 *   the caller is responsible for freeing the stack memory and for calling
 *   nxsched_release_tcb() to free the TCB (which could be in most any
 *   state).

/****************************************************************************
 * Name: nxtask_uninit
 *
 * Description:
 *   Undo all operations on a TCB performed by task_init() and release the
 *   TCB by calling kmm_free().  This is intended primarily to support
 *   error recovery operations after a successful call to task_init() such
 *   was when a subsequent call to task_activate fails.
 *
 *   Caution:  Freeing of the TCB itself might be an unexpected side-effect.
 *   The stack will also be freed UNLESS TCB_FLAG_CUSTOM_STACK was set in
 *   in the tcb->flags field when nxtask_init() was called.
 *
 * Input Parameters:
 *   tcb - Address of the TCB initialized by task_init()
 *
 * Returned Value:
 *   OK on success; negative error value on failure appropriately.
