Subject: [GIT PULL] thread fixes for v5.7-rc2

Hey Linus,

/* Summary */
This contains a few fixes and minor improvements:
- Correctly validate the cgroup file descriptor when clone3() is used
  with CLONE_INTO_CGROUP.

- Check that a new enough version of struct clone_args is passed which
  supports the cgroup file descriptor argument when CLONE_INTO_CGROUP is
  set in the flags argument.

- Catch nonsensical struct clone_args layouts at build time.

- Catch extensions of struct clone_args without updating the uapi visible
  size definitions at build time.

- Check whether the signal is valid early in kill_pid_usb_asyncio()
  before doing further work.

- Replace open-coded rcu_read_lock()+kill_pid_info()+rcu_read_unlock()
  sequence in kill_something_info() with kill_proc_info() which is a
  dedicated helper to do just that.

/* Testing */
All patches have seen exposure in linux-next and are based on v5.7-rc1.
No regressions or build warning have been reported to me and I haven't seen
any new ones in my own build with gcc 7.5.0.

/* Conflicts */
At the time of creating this PR no merge conflicts were reported from
linux-next.

The following changes since commit 8f3d9f354286745c751374f5f1fcafee6b3f3136:

  clone3: add build-time CLONE_ARGS_SIZE_VER* validity checks (2020-04-15 09:56:32 +0200)

Please consider pulling these changes from the signed for-linus-2020-04-18 tag.

(Btw, about two weeks ago chatting with Konstantin we realized that my gpg
 hadn't been up-to-date in
 https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/docs/kernel/pgpkeys.git. Unlikely that this
 would've affected you but just in case it did it's now fixed.

 And last, after having played with Konstantin's b4 attestation feature for
 some patchsets I've sent out I've also used it for this pr here. So if you
 wanted to try you could use b4 on this thing to get the new shiny.)

Thanks!
Christian
