Avi Kivity 8e7cac7980 core: Fix user return notifier on fork()
fork() clones all thread_info flags, including
TIF_USER_RETURN_NOTIFY; if the new task is first scheduled on a cpu
which doesn't have user return notifiers set, this causes user
return notifiers to trigger without any way of clearing itself.

This is easy to trigger with a forky workload on the host in
parallel with kvm, resulting in a cpu in an endless loop on the
verge of returning to userspace.

Fix by dropping the TIF_USER_RETURN_NOTIFY immediately after fork.
