	It's a kernel process.  You can tell because ps and top both say it
takes no memory at all (SIZE, RSS, and SHARE are all zero).  Another
hint is it's low process number (12, in the examples I've seen).

	It seems to be RedHat specific, and none of the generic kernels trees I
have reference it.

	The process before it is 'kreclaimd' and the one after is 'kupdated',
(again in the examples Google turned up) so these may have to do with
the file cache system.

	Sorry I can't come up with anything more....
