/* Support for clone call used on fork.  The signature varies across the
   architectures with current 4 different variants:

   1. long int clone (unsigned long flags, unsigned long newsp,
		      int *parent_tidptr, unsigned long tls,
		      int *child_tidptr)

   2. long int clone (unsigned long newsp, unsigned long clone_flags,
		      int *parent_tidptr, int * child_tidptr,
		      unsigned long tls)

   3. long int clone (unsigned long flags, unsigned long newsp,
		      int stack_size, int *parent_tidptr,
		      int *child_tidptr, unsigned long tls)

   4. long int clone (unsigned long flags, unsigned long newsp,
		      int *parent_tidptr, int *child_tidptr,
		      unsigned long tls)

   The fourth variant is intended to be used as the default for newer ports,
   Also IA64 uses the third variant but with __NR_clone2 instead of
   __NR_clone.

   The macros names to define the variant used for the architecture is
   similar to kernel:

   - __ASSUME_CLONE_BACKWARDS: for variant 1.
   - __ASSUME_CLONE_BACKWARDS2: for variant 2 (s390).
   - __ASSUME_CLONE_BACKWARDS3: for variant 3 (microblaze).
   - __ASSUME_CLONE_DEFAULT: for variant 4.
   - __ASSUME_CLONE2: for clone2 with variant 3 (ia64).
