fork: free thread in copy_process on failure

Due to the leakage of the memory items which should have been freed in arch/x86/kernel/process.c:exit_thread(). Make sure the memory is freed when fork fails later in copy_process. This is done by calling exit_thread with the thread to kill. Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz> Cc: "David S. Miller" <davem@davemloft.net> Cc: "H.
