[PATCH 5.4 63/78] clone3: ensure copy_thread_tls is implemented

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Jan 14 2020 - 05:06:09 EST


From: Amanieu d'Antras <amanieu@xxxxxxxxx>

commit dd499f7a7e34270208350a849ef103c0b3ae477f upstream.

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.
