Another task :-)

Think of it as 8192 tasks, but you can use the 5 bit task register value 
to "categorize" tasks:  Ring 0, Ring 1, etc.
Or, you can ignore the task register and use the tasklet register to 
create 256 tasks if you want more than 32.
I was thinking of treating tasklet 0 as special in each task.  FOr 
example, only tasklet 0 could write MMU regs, etc.
