Do we need an unbind or did a NULL mm mean unbind?

Any reason we need the task_struct here?

Mainly to attach to kthread to the process cgroups, but that part is
still in TODO since I need to understand it better.
Maybe we can remove the task_struct here and use `current` directly in

Ok I see.

Yes, it's easier to start without cgroup and we can add it on top.
