/** Protocol for CONNECT - TO - ME
*
* Calling process asks the callee to create a callback connection,
* so that it can start initiating new messages.
*
* The protocol for negotiating is as follows:
* - sys_connecttome - sends a message IPC_M_CONNECTTOME
* - sys_wait_for_call - upon receipt tries to allocate new phone
* - if it fails, responds with ELIMIT
* - passes call to userspace. If userspace
* responds with error, phone is deallocated and
* error is sent back to caller. Otherwise
* the call is accepted and the response is sent back.
* - the allocated phoneid is passed to userspace as
* ARG3 of the call.
* - the caller obtains taskid of the called thread
