[GIT PULL 08/12 for v6.18] core kernel

[Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>]

Hey Linus,

/* Testing */
This contains the changes to enable support for clone3() on nios2 which
apparently is still a thing. The more exciting part of this is that it
cleans up the inconsistency in how the 64-bit flag argument is passed
from copy_process() into the various other copy_*() helpers.

gcc (Debian 14.2.0-19) 14.2.0
Debian clang version 19.1.7 (3+b1)

No build failures or warnings were observed.
