[patch 1/1] uml: use sys_getpid bypassing glibc (fixes UML on Gentoo)

Using NPTL, getpid() sometimes delivers the wrong pid, since it uses the one
buffered in TLS from previous calls. This buffered pid isn't discarded, when
a child is created by a clone().
So, as a workaround, UML should use a direct kernel call to bypass the lib.
Also, I (Paolo) went replacing all remaining calls of getpid() with
os_getpid(), to make sure they use the syscall and not the normal glibc
definition.
