Good question.  From RTEMS perspective you can create and start
them in any order assuming you create task X before you start it.
But the normal scheduling rules apply so if the creating task
is preemptible, a newly started task may preempt it instantly.
If you use the "normal" RTEMS Init task setup, it is not preemptible
so when that task blocks or deletes itself, the created set
of tasks compete for resources at that point.
