1-liner like the others?

Why is this declaration needed?

What if create arg is false? Should initial arg also be false?

Can the dead_threads search be put in a separate function -- 
machine__find_dead_thread?

Why insert this unknown tid on the dead_threads list?

this change seems unrelated to the patch subject -- 
machine__find*_thread_time.
