Ah, sorry.

We do indeed still reference `sys_clone3()` from cgroup_util.c, so it should
stay in (as "../../clone3/clone3_selftests.h"). I realize now that it compiled
just fine because the call to `sys_clone3()` is dropped entirely when
clone3_selftests.h is not included.

So I'll apply the following diff:
