vhost: use vhost_tasks for worker threads
For vhost workers we use the kthread API which inherit's its values from
and checks against the kthreadd thread. This results in the wrong RLIMITs
being checked, so while tools like libvirt try to control the number of
threads based on the nproc rlimit setting we can end up creating more
threads than the user wanted.
This patch has us use the vhost_task helpers which will inherit its
values/checks from the thread that owns the device similar to if we did
a clone in userspace. The vhost threads will now be counted in the nproc
rlimits. And we get features like cgroups and mm sharing automatically,
so we can remove those calls.
