Subject: [C/R ARM][PATCH 2/3] ARM: Add the eclone system call

In addition to doing everything that clone() system call does, the
eclone() system call:

	- allows additional clone flags (31 of 32 bits in the flags
	  parameter to clone() are in use)

	- allows user to specify a pid for the child process in its
	  active and ancestor pid namespaces.

Eclone is needed for restarting a process from a checkpoint. See more
in Documentation/eclone and refer to the original LKML posting:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/11/11/361

The new system call for ARM has number 366.
