fork(): disable CLONE_PARENT for init

When global or container-init processes use CLONE_PARENT, they create a
multi-rooted process tree.  Besides siblings of global init remain as
zombies on exit since they are not reaped by their parent (swapper).  So
prevent global and container-inits from creating siblings.
