* Name: up_task_start
*
* Description:
* In this kernel mode build, this function will be called to execute a
* task in user-space. When the task is first started, a kernel-mode
* stub will first run to perform some housekeeping functions. This
* kernel-mode stub will then be called transfer control to the user-mode
* task.
*
* Normally the a user-mode start-up stub will also execute before the
* task actually starts. See libc/sched/task_startup.c
*
* Input Parameters:
* taskentry - The user-space entry point of the task.
* argc - The number of parameters being passed.
* argv - The parameters being passed. These lie in kernel-space memory
* and will have to be reallocated in user-space memory.
*
* Returned Value:
* This function should not return. It should call the user-mode start-up
* stub and that stub should call exit if/when the user task terminates.
*
