Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

+ *
+ * pid-structures are backing objects for tasks sharing a given ID to chain
+ * against. There is very little to them aside from hashing them and
+ * parking tasks using given ID's on a list.
+ *
+ * The hash is always changed with the tasklist_lock write-acquired,
+ * and the hash is only accessed with the tasklist_lock at least
+ * read-acquired, so there's no additional SMP locking needed here.
+ *
+ * We have a list of bitmap pages, which bitmaps represent the PID space.
+ * Allocating and freeing PIDs is completely lockless. The worst-case
+ * allocation scenario when all but one out of 1 million PIDs possible are
+ * allocated already: the scanning of 32 list entries and at most PAGE_SIZE
+ * bytes. The typical fastpath is a single successful setbit. Freeing is O(1).
