Various cleanup: - Got rid of dummy proc[0]. Now proc[0] is init. - Added initcode.S to exec /init, so that /init is just a regular binary. - Moved exec out of sysfile to exec.c - Moved code dealing with fs guts (like struct inode) from sysfile.c to fs.c. Code dealing with system call arguments stays in sysfile.c - Refactored directory routines in fs.c; should be simpler. - Changed iget to return *unlocked* inode structure. This solves the lookup-then-use race in namei without introducing deadlocks. It also enabled getting rid of the dummy proc[0].
