At system boot, before all the subsystems have been registered, no processes
including init has been forked, am I right? So the fork callback will be
invoked when the init process is forked, so we don't need to call
ss->fork(ss, &init_task).

I'll add a BUG_ON(), and update the document about the fork callback.
