In practice clone3 has also been enabled in Linux 5.4.12. This cause the 
misc/tst-glibcsyscalls test to fail when building glibc 2.31 with Linux
kernel headers >= 5.4.12:

original exit status 1
error: kernel syscall 'clone3' (435) not known to glibc
info: glibc tables are based on kernel version 5.4
info: installed kernel headers are version 5.4

Therefore should we backport this commit into the 2.31 stable branch?
