defunc thread?

[mingz <mingz@ele.uri.edu>]

I code a smal example about kernel thread. But when I 
insmod thrtest.o &
more /proc/testthread
ps aux

then i can see my thread become defunc. if i 
insmod (and wait till it return, )
more /proc/testthread, 
ps aux, 

the thread status is correct. can anybody tell me why? thx
