Changes from previous version:

 * Changed the flags to check: now only CLONE_VM is tested, since
   CLONE_THREAD implies CLONE_VM;
 * Added mips, s390, and sparc fixes.
 * Added testcase.

--

As discussed in libc-alpha [1] current clone with CLONE_VM (without
CLONE_THREAD set) will reset the pthread pid/tid fields to -1.  The
issue is since memory is shared between the parent and child it will
clobber parent's cached pid/tid leading to internal inconsistencies
if the value is not restored.

And even it is restored it may lead to racy conditions when between
set/restore a thread might invoke pthread function that validate the
pthread with INVALID_TD_P/INVALID_NOT_TERMINATED_TD_P and thus get
wrong results.

As stated in BZ19957, previously reports of this behaviour was close
with EWONTFIX due the fact usage of clone outside glibc is tricky
since glibc requires consistent internal pthread, while using clone
directly may not provide it. However since now posix_spawn uses
clone (CLONE_VM) to fixes various issues related to previous vfork
usage this issue requires fixing.

The vfork implementation also does something similar, but instead
it negates and restores only the *pid* field and functions that
might access its value know to handle such case (getpid, raise
and pthread ones that uses INVALID_TD_P/INVALID_NOT_TERMINATED_TD_P
macros that check only *tid* field).  Also vfork does not call
__clone directly, instead calling either __NR_vfork or __NR_clone
directly.

So this patch removes this clone behavior by avoiding setting
the pthread pid/tid field for CLONE_VM. There is no need to
check for CLONE_THREAD, since the minimum supported kernel in all
architecture implies that CLONE_VM must be used with CLONE_THREAD,
otherwise clone returns EINVAL.

Instead of current approach of:

   int clone(int (*fn)(void *), void *child_stack, int flags, ...)
      [...]
      if (flags & CLONE_THREAD)
        goto do_syscall;
      pid_t new_value;
      if (flags & CLONE_VM)
        new_value = -1;
      else
        new_value = getpid ();
      THREAD_SETMEM (THREAD_SELF, pid, new_value);
      THREAD_SETMEM (THREAD_SELF, tid, new_value);

    do_syscall:
      [...]

The new approach uses:

   int clone(int (*fn)(void *), void *child_stack, int flags, ...)
      [...]
      if (flags & CLONE_VM)
        goto do_syscall;
      pid_t new_value = getpid ();
      THREAD_SETMEM (THREAD_SELF, pid, new_value);
      THREAD_SETMEM (THREAD_SELF, tid, new_value);

    do_syscall:
      [...]

It also removes the linux tst-getpid2.c test which expects the previous
behavior and instead add another clone test.

Tested on x86_64, i686, x32, powerpc64le, aarch64, armhf, s390, and
s390x. I also did limited check on mips32 and sparc64 (using the new
added test).

If would like to ask for some help on fixing the remaning ones:
alpha, microblaze, sh, ia64, tile, hppa, m68k, and nio2.
