Commit Message

On older distros struct clone_args does not have a cgroup member,
leading to build errors:

  cgroup_util.c: In function 'clone_into_cgroup':
  cgroup_util.c:343:4: error: 'struct clone_args' has no member named 'cgroup'

But the selftests already have a locally defined version of the
structure which is up to date, called __clone_args.

So use __clone_args which fixes the error.

Argument passed to sys_clone3() will also require a similar change.

-	pid = sys_clone3(&args, sizeof(struct clone_args));
+	pid = sys_clone3(&args, sizeof(struct __clone_args));

Without this compilation still fails(at least for me) due to following error

cgroup_util.c: In function 'clone_into_cgroup':
cgroup_util.c:346:33: error: invalid application of 'sizeof' to incomplete type 'struct clone_args'
  pid = sys_clone3(&args, sizeof(struct clone_args));

Thanks Michael for taking care fo this. Much appreciated. I think with
the fix that Sachin pointed out this should work out fine!

Once that's fixed up:
