This is another occurrence of using getline where the code assumes that
getline allocates memory to store the line, but the pointer passed to it
is uninitialized and potentially a non-null pointer.  This violates the
Open Group Spec[1] and caused a segfault in a similar situation in
selftest/clone3/clone3_set_tid.  Fix it by initializing the line pointer
to NULL.

The issue has been found by simply grepping through the selftest code
after running into the issue in clone3_set_tid.  Whether it segfaults in
its current state is unknown to me.  But it's good to be addressed due to
defensive reasons.
