It looks a little weird that this is an atomic_t.
Looking further ahead, it seems that it is a counter of threads that
have request new tasks be killed.
It might help to make that clear, at least in a comment.

However ... as it is a counter, it isn't clear that copying the counter
makes sense, and the new counter will never get decremented.
Maybe __rpc_clone_client() should fail if ->cl_kill_new_tasks > 0 ??
