init: Deal with the init process being a user mode process

Browse source

It is silly for user_mode_thread to leave PF_KTHREAD set
on the resulting task.  Update the init process so that
it does not care if PF_KTHREAD is set or not.

Ensure do_populate_rootfs flushes all delayed fput work by calling
task_work_run.  In the rare instance that async_schedule_domain calls
do_populate_rootfs synchronously it is possible do_populate_rootfs
will be called directly from the init process.  At which point fput
will call "task_work_add(current, ..., TWA_RESUME)".  The files on the
initramfs need to be completely put before we attempt to exec them
(which is before the code enters userspace).  So call task_work_run
just in case there are any pending fput operations.
