proc0 should use the kernel as its filename, not a NULL filename. I wonder
if this bug is why 'pmcstat -t 0' in top mode doesn't show any events?
I doubt any third party code uses kthread_suspend() or kproc_suspend().
kthread/proc_suspend() already relies on the kthread in question using
kthread/proc_suspend_check() in its main loop so it doesn't work on a variety
of kthreads that have P_KTHREAD set (e.g. taskqueue threads, ithreads).
Note that thread0 does have TDP_KTHREAD set explicitly, so you can already
do 'kthread_suspend(&thread0)' without EINVAL, just not 'kproc(&proc0)'.
Both cases would hang of course since swapper() doesn't check for suspend.
Given that, I think it would be more consistent to set P_KTHREAD for proc0
than to not.
Also, P_KTHREAD should probably be renamed to P_KPROC.
