Research direction

Read the passive-servers section of tutorials/mcs/mcs.md and the referenced seL4 pull request first. Update the tutorial example to reflect the simpler passive-server setup without the special init protocol, then verify that the instructions remain complete and consistent.

Description

help wanted

Once https://github.com/seL4/seL4/pull/523 is merged, setting up a passive server becomes simpler and doesn't need a special init protocol anymore. The mcs tutorial should take advantage of this when showing how to configure a passive server: https://github.com/seL4/sel4-tutorials/blob/master/tutorials/mcs/mcs.md#passive-servers-1
