[PATCH 7/7] clone3: ensure copy_thread_tls is implemented

From: Amanieu d'Antras
Date: Thu Jan 02 2020 - 12:24:31 EST


copy_thread implementations handle CLONE_SETTLS by reading the TLS
value from the registers containing the syscall arguments for
clone. This doesn't work with clone3 since the TLS value is passed
in clone_args instead.
