I think we can add a test case to trigger the issue what I found in the
previous version of the kernel patch. You can find my version of this
test case in the attached patch.

nit: we need to flush stdout and stderr buffers before calling the raw
clone3 syscall and _exit(). Otherwise, some log messages can be lost and
some of them can be printed twice.

To trigger this issue, you can run the test and redirect its output to
file or pipe:

$ ./clone3_set_tid | cat

I have attached the patch to address both these problems. It is a draft
version and may require some work.

Adrian and Christian, it is up to you to decide whether we want to
update the current patch or to fix this on top by a separate patch.

Thanks,
Andrei
