As far as I can tell when kernel is too old we would get EINVAL because
the syscall number is not allocated. ENOSYS happens mostly when syscall
number is allocated and kernel does not implement the functionality,
e.g. it's disabled in .config.

I wonder if it's even menaningful to handle ENOSYS here, I doubt that
clone3() can be disabled, or do I miss something?
