I have tested with your patch, the app still can not start up at all.

I'm sorry I didn't explan this exactly before, those apps are 32-bit 
android apps(com.tencent.pao etc.). They want to get the information as
   "*D m3e : GetCPUType:AArch64 Processor rev 0 (aarch64)*"
and I'm sure the process is forked by zygote not zygote64 in android M.

Finally, I find that apps need the information "Processor :", so when I 
change your patch as below, the apps can start up.
