Subject: gdb-rhbz1854784-powerpc-remove-region-limit-dawr-1of7.patch
;; Backport "Add low_new_clone method to linux_nat_target."
;; (Pedro Franco de Carvalho, RH BZ 1854784)
This patch adds a low_new_clone method to linux_nat_target, called after
a PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE is detected, similar to how low_new_fork is called
after PTRACE_EVENT_(V)FORK.
This is useful for targets that need to copy state associated with a
thread that is inherited across clones.

* linux-nat.h (low_new_clone): New method.
