namespace: ensure clone_flags are always stored in an unsigned long

Browse Source 
While working on unshare support for the network namespace I noticed we
were putting clone flags in an int.  Which is weird because the syscall
uses unsigned long and we at least need an unsigned to properly hold all of
the unshare flags.

So to make the code consistent, this patch updates the code to use
unsigned long instead of int for the clone flags in those places
where we get it wrong today.
