[ Upstream commit 09b3d870faa7bc3e96c0978ab3cf4e96e4b15571 ]

Stan Johnson recently reported a failure from the 'dump' command:

  DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Fri Aug  9 23:37:15 2024
  DUMP: Dumping /dev/sda (an unlisted file system) to /dev/null
  DUMP: Label: none
  DUMP: Writing 10 Kilobyte records
  DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files]
  DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories]
  DUMP: estimated 3595695 blocks.
  DUMP: Context save fork fails in parent 671

The dump program uses the clone syscall with the CLONE_IO flag, that is,
flags == 0x80000000. When that value is promoted from long int to u64 by
m68k_clone(), it undergoes sign-extension. The new value includes
CLONE_INTO_CGROUP so the validation in cgroup_css_set_fork() fails and
the syscall returns -EBADF. Avoid sign-extension by casting to u32.
