[PATCH v2 1/2] fork: extend clone3() to support CLONE_SET_TID

[Adrian Reber <areber@redhat.com>]

The main motivation to add CLONE_SET_TID to clone3() is CRIU.

To restore a process with the same PID/TID CRIU currently uses
/proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid. It writes the desired (PID - 1) to
ns_last_pid and then (quickly) does a clone(). This works most of the
time, but it is racy. It is also slow as it requires multiple syscalls.

Extending clone3() to support CLONE_SET_TID makes it possible restore a
process using CRIU without accessing /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid and
race free (as long as the desired PID/TID is available).

This clone3() extension places the same restrictions (CAP_SYS_ADMIN)
on clone3() with set_tid as they are currently in place for ns_last_pid.

v2:
 - Removed (size < sizeof(struct clone_args)) as discussed with
   Christian and Dmitry
 - Added comment to ((set_tid != 1) && idr_get_cursor() <= 1) (Oleg)
 - Use idr_alloc() instead of idr_alloc_cyclic() (Oleg)
