Call exit directly in clone (BZ #21512)
On aarch64, alpha, arm, hppa, mips, nios2, powerpc, sh, sparc, tile,
and x86_64 the clone syscall jumps to _exit after the child execution
and the function ends the process execution by calling exit_group.
This behavior have a small issue where threads created with
CLONE_THREAD using clone syscall directly will eventually exit the
whole group altogether instead of just the thread created.  Also,
s390, microblaze, ia64, i386, and m68k differs by calling exit
syscall directly.

This patch changes all architectures to call the exit syscall
directly, as for s390, microblaze, ia64, i386, and m68k.  This do not
have change glibc internal behavior in any sort, since the only
usage of clone implementation in posix_spawn calls _exit directly
in the created child (fork uses a direct call to clone).

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, aarch64-linux-gnu,
powerpc-linux-gnu, powerpc64le-linux-gnu, sparc64-linux-gnu,
and sparcv9-linux-gnu.
