• A
    clone: prepare to recycle CLONE_STOPPED · bdff746a

    Ulrich says that we never used this clone flags and that nothing should be
    using it.
    
    As we're down to only a single bit left in clone's flags argument, let's add a
    warning to check that no userspace is actually using it.  Hopefully we will
    be able to recycle it.

      CLONE_STOPPED was previously used by some NTPL versions when under
      thread_db (i.e.  only when being actively debugged by gdb), but not for a
      long time now, and it never worked reliably when it was used.  Removing it
      seems fine to me.
