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.
