Just to be clear, this isn't ext4 at all; ext4 happens to be calling
kthread_create(), but it's actually a generic kthread problem, right?

I'm not sure how it is that bpf is able to see the task before comm is
initialised; that seems to be the real race here, that comm is not set
before the kthread is a schedulable entity?  Adding the scheduler people.
