The change is right, but this log entry is confusing. auto-attached has
nothing to do with it, nor does anything about tracing the new process or
not. The new process has not experienced a PER trap of its own, so it is
wrong to deliver a SIGTRAP that is meant for its creator.
Ok, I changed the wording slightly:
Clear the TIF_SINGLE_STEP bit in copy_thread. The new process did not get
a PER event of its own. It is wrong deliver a SIGTRAP that was meant for
the parent process.
