    Linux: Do not align the stack for __clone3
    
    Adjusting the stack on child thread is not async-signal safe, since
    kernel does not enforce stack alignmnet.  Although, all the internal
    usage of __clone_internal are done with all signal masked, removing
    stack alignment of __clone3 is still a net gain: is simplifies the
    function contract detail (mask/unmarsk signals) and simplifies the
    arch-specific code.
    
    The internal users are responsible for correct stack alignment.  If
    glibc ever exports a clone3 wrapper, it should adjust stack alignment.
    
    Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.

    Different than kernel, the implementation also returns EINVAL for an
    invalid NULL __CL_ARGS or __FUNC (similar to __clone).
 
+   The stack is not aligned prior the syscall, different than exported
+   __clone.  Adjusting the stack on child is not async-signal safe and since
+   it is used only internally the caller is responsible for proper stack
+   alignment.
+
    This function is only implemented if the ABI defines HAVE_CLONE3_WRAPPER.
