omit CLONE_PARENT flag to clone in pthread_create

CLONE_PARENT is not necessary (CLONE_THREAD provides all the useful
parts of it) and Linux treats CLONE_PARENT as an error in certain
situations, without noticing that it would be a no-op due to
CLONE_THREAD. this error case prevents, for example, use of a
multi-threaded init process and certain usages with containers.
