[LTP] [PATCH 0/2] syscalls/kcmp03.c: Fix CLONE_IO failure on s390

Hi all,

This series fixes the CLONE_IO flag test on s390:

	kcmp03.c:82: FAIL: clone() Failed: EBADF (9)

The reason for the failure is CLONE_IO flag is sign-
extended to unsigned long and CLONE_INTO_CGROUP gets
set unintentionally. The kernel does its job well and
fails the syscall.

The fix is probably wrong, as the right solution needs to
accomodate all archs. I however, post it as a short-term
solution that might work for other archs as well.

Thanks!
