RTEMS Self Task Deletion

[Kamaraj P]

Yes, I have observed the Entry point of the new task has got executed. Infact, it has also executed the call rtem_task_delete(RTEM_SELF), but still the memory associated with the task is NOT freed.

You may need to block the thread starting the new task in order for the 
new task to run. The addition I have made does this. Note, this is not 
always the case and depends on the priorities and the pre-emption state 
of the starting task.
