Deny CLONE_PARENT|CLONE_NEWPID|CLONE_SIGHAND combination. CLONE_PARENT was used to implement an older threading model. For consistency with the CLONE_THREAD check in copy_pid_ns(), disable CLONE_PARENT and CLONE_SIGHAND with CLONE_NEWPID, at least until the required semantics of the pid namespaces are clear. Changelog[v2]: [Eric Biederman] Disable CLONE_SIGHAND also ???
