arch: handle arches who do not yet define clone3
This cleanly handles arches who do not yet define clone3. clone3() was initially placed under __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE under the assumption that this would cleanly handle all architectures. It does not. Architectures such as nios2 or h8300 simply take the asm-generic syscall definitions and generate their syscall table from it. Since they don't define __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE the build would fail complaining about sys_clone3 missing. The reason this doesn't happen for legacy clone is that nios2 and h8300 provide assembly stubs for sys_clone. This seems to be done for architectural reasons. The build failures for nios2 and h8300 were caught int -next luckily. The solution is to define __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3 that architectures can add. Additionally, we need a cond_syscall(clone3) for architectures such as nios2 or h8300 that generate their syscall table in the way I explained above.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
