Userspace specifies CLONE_VM to share address space and spawn new thread. `clone` allow userspace to specify a new stack for new thread. However there is no way to specify new shadow stack base address without changing API. This patch allocates a new shadow stack whenever CLONE_VM is given.
In case of CLONE_VFORK, parent is suspended until child finishes and thus can child use parent shadow stack. In case of !CLONE_VM, COW kicks in because entire address space is copied from parent to child.
`clone3` is extensible and can provide mechanisms using which shadow stack as an input parameter can be provided. This is not settled yet and being extensively discussed on mailing list. Once that's settled, this commit will adapt to that.
