The value of btype for syscalls is CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE,
so we need to make sure that the value is 0 before clone,
fork, or syscall return.

The value of btype for signals is defined, but it does not make
sense for a SIGILL handler to enter with the btype set as for
the indirect branch that caused the SIGILL.

v4: Do not clear btype in signal frame.
