kthread: fix boot hang (regression) on MIPS/OpenRISC

This fixes a regression in commit 4d6501dc where I didn't notice
that MIPS and OpenRISC were reinitialising p->{set,clear}_child_tid to
NULL after our initialisation in copy_process().

We can simply get rid of the arch-specific initialisation here since it
is now always done in copy_process() before hitting copy_thread{,_tls}().

Review notes:

 - As far as I can tell, copy_process() is the only user of
   copy_thread_tls(), which is the only caller of copy_thread() for
   architectures that don't implement copy_thread_tls().

 - After this patch, there is no arch-specific code touching
   p->set_child_tid or p->clear_child_tid whatsoever.

 - It may look like MIPS/OpenRISC wanted to always have these fields be
   NULL, but that's not true, as copy_process() would unconditionally
   set them again _after_ calling copy_thread_tls() before commit
   4d6501dc.
