Unconditionally share _metadata between all forked processes, which enables to actually catch errors which were previously ignored. This is required for a following commit replacing vfork() with clone3() and CLONE_VFORK (i.e. not sharing the full memory) . It should also be useful to share _metadata to extend expectations to test process's forks. For instance, this change identified a wrong expectation in pidfd_setns_test. Because this _metadata is used by the new XFAIL_ADD(), use a global pointer initialized in TEST_F(). This is OK because only XFAIL_ADD() use it, and XFAIL_ADD() already depends on TEST_F().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
