Subject: how to distinguish if a task_struct belong to a kernel thread or a user task?

Hi all,

I have little question while doing some kernel implementation.
How to distinguish if a task_struct belongs to a kernel thread or user task.?

My idea was to look at task_struct "mm" field to discriminate them,
but that was wrong.

Thanks,

Sylvain
