[PATCH 2/2] wait: allow sys_waitid() to accept __WNOTHREAD/__WCLONE/__WALL

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Tue Mar 15 2016 - 19:35:13 EST


I see no reason why waitid() can't support other linux-specific flags
allowed in sys_wait4().

In particular this change can help if we reconsider the previous change
which adds the "automagical" __WALL for debugger.
