[PATCH] uml: add arch_switch_to for newly forked thread
Newly forked threads have no arch_switch_to_skas() called before their first
run, because when schedule() switches to them they're resumed in the body of
thread_wait() inside fork_handler() rather than in switch_threads() in
switch_to_skas(). Compensate this missing call.
