Merge tag 'kernel.fork.v6.3-rc2' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux
Pull clone3 fix from Christian Brauner: "A simple fix for the clone3() system call. The CLONE_NEWTIME allows the creation of time namespaces. The flag reuses a bit from the CSIGNAL bits that are used in the legacy clone() system call to set the signal that gets sent to the parent after the child exits. The clone3() system call doesn't rely on CSIGNAL anymore as it uses a dedicated .exit_signal field in struct clone_args. So we blocked all CSIGNAL bits in clone3_args_valid(). When CLONE_NEWTIME was introduced and reused a CSIGNAL bit we forgot to adapt clone3_args_valid() causing CLONE_NEWTIME with clone3() to be rejected. Fix this" * tag 'kernel.fork.v6.3-rc2' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: selftests/clone3: test clone3 with CLONE_NEWTIME fork: allow CLONE_NEWTIME in clone3 flags
