check_unshare_flags: kill the bogus CLONE_SIGHAND/sig->count check 

check_unshare_flags(CLONE_SIGHAND) adds CLONE_THREAD to *flags_ptr if the
task is multithreaded to ensure unshare_thread() will fail.

Not only this is a bit strange way to return the error, this is absolutely
meaningless.  If signal->count > 1 then sighand->count must be also > 1,
and unshare_sighand() will fail anyway.

In fact, all CLONE_THREAD/SIGHAND/VM checks inside sys_unshare() do not
look right.  Fortunately this code doesn't really work anyway.
