Add fn and fn_arg members into struct kernel_clone_args and test for
them in copy_thread (instead of testing for PF_KTHREAD | PF_IO_WORKER).
This allows any task that wants to be a user space task that only runs
in kernel mode to use this functionality.
The code on x86 is an exception and still retains a PF_KTHREAD test
because x86 unlikely everything else handles kthreads slightly
differently than user space tasks that start with a function.
The functions that created tasks that start with a function
have been updated to set ".fn" and ".fn_arg" instead of
".stack" and ".stack_size". These functions are fork_idle(),
create_io_thread(), kernel_thread(), and user_mode_thread().

The default portion of the parent's FPU state is saved in a child task.
With dynamic features enabled, the non-default portion is not saved in a
child's fpstate because these register states are defined to be
caller-saved. The new task's fpstate is therefore the default buffer.
Fork inherits the permission of the parent.
Also, do not use memcpy() when TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD is set because it is
invalid when the parent has dynamic features.

internal.h is a kitchen sink which needs to get out of the way to prepare
for the upcoming changes.
Move the context switch and exit to user inlines into a separate header,
which is all that code needs.
