staging: unisys: visorhba: fail gracefully for thread creation failures
Previously, if visorhba ever failed to create its thread, it would have
subsequently attempted to do a kthread_stop() on an invalid task_struct
pointer. This was fixed via the new visor_thread_stop() function, which
validates the task_struct pointer before doing the kthread_stop().
Also, the other thread-related fields in visor_thread_info (has_stopped
and id) were not being used, so visor_thead_info was just removed.
We also now spit out an error message if thread creation fails.
