+ * At the top of a newly initialized kernel stack are two stacked pt_reg
+ * structures. The first (topmost) is the userspace context of the thread.
+ * The second is the kernelspace context of the thread.
+ *
+ * A kernel thread will not be returning to userspace, so the topmost pt_regs
+ * struct can be uninitialized; it _does_ need to exist, though, because
+ * a kernel thread can become a userspace thread by doing a kernel_execve, in
+ * which case the topmost context will be initialized and used for 'returning'
+ * to userspace.
+ *
+ * The second pt_reg struct needs to be initialized to 'return' to
+ * ret_from_fork. A kernel thread will need to set r20 to the address of
+ * a function to call into (with arg in r22); userspace threads need to set
+ * r20 to NULL in which case ret_from_fork will just continue a return to
+ * userspace.
+ *
+ * A kernel thread 'fn' may return; this is effectively what happens when
+ * kernel_execve is called. In that case, the userspace pt_regs must have
+ * been initialized (which kernel_execve takes care of, see start_thread
+ * below); ret_from_fork will then continue its execution causing the
+ * 'kernel thread' to return to userspace as a userspace thread.
