Ensure "init" (PID 1) also executes userret() initially
Calling userret() from fork_return() misses the first return to
userspace of the "init" (PID 1) process. The latter is indeed created
by fork1() followed by a call to cpu_fork_kthread_handler() call that
replaces fork_return() by start_init() as the function to execute after
fork.
A new process' initial return to userspace in the end always happens
through returning from fork_exit(), so move userret() there instead to
fix the omission.
This problem was discovered as part of a revamp of scheduling priorities
that lead to experimenting with asserting and sometimes resetting
priorities in sched_userret(), in the course of which the author
stumbled on panics being triggered only in init() or only in other
processes, depending on the modifications to sched_userret(). This
change currently has no practical effect but will have some in the near
future.
