Change the order of function qualifiers from 'noinline static' to 'static noinline'
in copy_clone_args_from_user for consistency with kernel coding style.
This is a non-functional change intended to improve readability and maintain
consistent ordering of qualifiers across the codebase.
Simplify to "No functional change intended." All the other stuff can be
dropped from this sentence IMHO -- I'd even drop the whole sentence.
