/************************************************************
* Name: _task_init and task_init
*
* Description:
* These functions initializes a Task Control Block (TCB)
* in preparation for starting a new thread. _task_init()
* is an internal version of the function that has some
* additional control arguments and task_init() is a wrapper
* function that creates a VxWorks-like user API.
* task_init() is, otherwise, not used by the OS.
*
* _task_init() is called from task_init() and task_start().\
* It is also called from pthread_create() to create a
* a pthread (distinguished by the pthread argument).
*
* Unlike task_create(), task_init() does not activate the
* task. This must be done by calling task_activate()
* afterward.
*
* Input Parameters:
* tcb - Address of the new task's TCB
* name - Name of the new task (not used)
* priority - Priority of the new task
* entry - Entry point of a new task
* main - Application start point of the new task
* pthread - TRUE is the task emulates pthread behavior
* arg1-4 - Four required task arguments to pass to
* the task when it is started.
*
* Return Value:
* OK on success; ERROR on failure.
*
* This function can only failure is it is unable to assign
* a new, unique task ID to the TCB (errno is not set).
