[PATCH] clone.2: refer to VERSIONS for raw clone prototype

[PATCH] clone.2: refer to VERSIONS for raw clone prototype

[Kir Kolyshkin]

Commit 2a15a76bba35c ("clone.2: Document raw syscall interfaces on various other
architectures") adds this note:

	/* For the prototype of the raw system call, see NOTES */

but places the raw syscall prototypes into DESCRIPTION.

Next, commit 1874193ebf07068b ("clone.2: Add NOTES heading") makes the
information to appear in NOTES.

Finally, commit 4131356cdab8d ("man*/, man-pages.7: VERSIONS, STANDARDS,
HISTORY: Reorganize sections") moves the NOTES section (with some but
not all of the old contents from NOTES and VERSIONS) down, and thus the
raw prototypes are now under VERSIONS.

Fix the comment accordingly.
