We have seccomp matches for clone() which mandate the presence of
several flags, in order to permit pthreads_create:

  REQUIRE_CLONE_FLAG(CLONE_VM);
  REQUIRE_CLONE_FLAG(CLONE_FS);
  ...

Given those mandatory matches, it is impossible for flags == 0 to
pass the filter. This is fortunate, since the explicit match on
flags == 0 is in fact broken, as it has a silent size extension
from 32-bits to 64-bits.

This results in seccomp generating pseudo code of:

    if ($arch == 3221225534)
      # filter for syscall "clone" (56) [priority: 65531]
      if ($syscall == 56)
        if ($a0.hi32 & 0xffffffff == 0)
          if ($a0.lo32 & 0xffffff00 == 0)
            action ERRNO(1);
      # default action
      action ALLOW;
    # invalid architecture action
    action KILL;

Since the clone() flag is passed as a 32-bit value in the syscall,
the high 32-bits are liable to be undefined/uninitialized garbage

The desired match for flags == 0 was

    if ($arch == 3221225534)
      # filter for syscall "clone" (56) [priority: 65532]
      if ($syscall == 56)
        if ($a0.hi32 & 0x00000000 == 0)
          if ($a0.lo32 & 0xffffff00 == 0)
            action ERRNO(1);
      # default action
      action ALLOW;
    # invalid architecture action
    action KILL;

That is redundant, however, as can be seen if we look at the
(fixed) program with the CLONE_THREAD rule also present:

    if ($arch == 3221225534)
      # filter for syscall "clone" (56) [priority: 65532]
      if ($syscall == 56)
        if ($a0.hi32 & 0x00000000 == 0)
          if ($a0.lo32 & 0xffffff00 == 0)
            action ERRNO(1);
          if ($a0.lo32 & 0x00010000 == 0)
            action ERRNO(1);
      # default action
      action ALLOW;
    # invalid architecture action
    action KILL;

That "($a0.lo32 & 0x00010000 == 0)" match will catch the case
of flags == 0 and do the right thing.
