Yes, low-level.  These events mark the extreme boundaries of a thread's
lifespan, from the kernel's point of view: ll_create is before it has
executed its first instruction and ll_exit after it has executed it's
last.

Reason I'd like to keep the ll_ part is that it makes it clear these
events are not to do with pthread_create or pthread_exit/pthread_join,
which are a higher level abstraction synthesised by libpthread.
