RFC, please review.

The last 2 patches should have been sent in a separate series, and probably
should be nacked. But I like them.

Oleg.

If we need to keep the magic special treatment of init,
then these three patches look like a good cleanup to me.


Thanks,
Roland

I think we do need. While playing with these patches I noticed that
killall5 sends SIGKILL explicitly to init during shutdown on my system.
Note also http://marc.info/?t=120544648800001

(offtopic: and "PATCH 5/5" helped me to figure out why init wastes CPU
 on my system, it stats /dev/initctl (which I don't have) every 5 secs).

Great, thanks!

Oleg.
