Subject: [PATCH urgent 2/2] x86/vm86: Set thread.vm86 to NULL on fork/clone

thread.vm86 points to per-task information -- the pointer should not
be copied on clone.

Fixes: d4ce0f26c790 ("x86/vm86: Move fields from 'struct kernel_vm86_struct' to 'struct vm86'")
Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@...nel.org>
