Some consumers may be loosely coupled with the lkpi.
This allows them to call linux_alloc_current without
having a static dependency.

LinuxKPI task struct. Change type of "state" variable from "int" to

In FreeBSD thread IDs and procedure IDs have distinct number
spaces. When asking for the group leader task ID in the LinuxKPI,
return the procedure ID and let this resolve to the first task in the
procedure having a valid LinuxKPI task structure pointer.

tasks in the belonging procedure already have a valid mm_struct and
reference that instead.
The mm_struct in the LinuxKPI should be shared among all tasks
belonging to the same procedure. This has to do with with the mmap_sem
semaphore which should serialize all VM operations inside a given
procedure. Linux based drivers depend on this behaviour.

functions in the LinuxKPI. Add a usage atomic to the task_struct
structure to facilitate refcounting the task structure when returned
from get_pid_task(). The get_task_struct() and put_task_struct()
function is used to manage atomic refcounting. After this change the
task_struct should only be freed through put_task_struct().

some associated helper functions in the LinuxKPI. Let the existing
linux_alloc_current() function allocate and initialize the new
structure and let linux_free_current() drop the refcount on the memory
mapping structure. When the mm_struct's refcount reaches zero, the
structure is freed.

A set of helper functions have been added to manage the life of the
LinuxKPI task struct. When an external system call or task is invoked,
a check is made to create the task struct by demand. A thread
destructor callback is registered to free the task struct when a
thread exits to avoid memory leaks.
This change lays the ground for emulating the Linux kernel more
closely which is a dependency by the code using the LinuxKPI APIs.
Add new dedicated td_lkpi_task field has been added to struct thread
instead of abusing td_retval[1].
Fix some header file inclusions to make LINT kernel build properly
after this change.
Bump the __FreeBSD_version to force a rebuild of all kernel modules.
