Microblaze was assign to CLONE_BACKWARDS type where
parent tid was passed via 3rd argument.
Microblaze glibc is using 4th argument for it.

Create new CLONE_BACKWARDS3 type where stack_size is passed
via 3rd argument, parent thread id pointer via 4th,
child thread id pointer via 5th and tls value as 6th
argument

Hi Al,

We have found this problem based on debugging timer_create()
reported by customer which wasn't cover by LTP testing.
What tool do you use for syscall testing?

IRC there was any discussion about adding syscall tests
directly to the kernel.

I am not sure if there is more elegant way how to fix this
in syscalls.h.

Thanks,
Michal
