I might be missing something crucial here but
copy_process has the following:
        if (clone_flags & CLONE_THREAD) {
                p->exit_signal = -1;
                p->group_leader = current->group_leader;
                p->tgid = current->tgid;
        } else {
                if (clone_flags & CLONE_PARENT)
                        p->exit_signal = current->group_leader->exit_signal;
                else
                        p->exit_signal = (clone_flags & CSIGNAL);
                p->group_leader = p;
                p->tgid = p->pid;
        }

So clone without CLONE_THREAD should create a new thread group leader
and so create a new thread group. Unless there is some other trickery
which I do not see right now for_each_thread from the parent task
shouldn't see those which are cloned without CLONE_THREAD.

OK, but all your tasks should trigger SEGV. You cannot find out whether
all of them happened from the same zap_process, can you.
