It looks to be just a re-send from the kernel git tree (commit
ee9dce44362b: "futex: Drop CLONE_THREAD requirement for private
default hash alloc").
People who use git-send-email by mistalke often end up re-sending
other peoples patches.
And that commit came from
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260501194123.948643-1-dave@xxxxxxxxxxxx/
except I fixed the "from an earlier CLONE_THREAD" in the commit
message to be about CLONE_VM when I applied it (as per the thread
there)
