Doubt fork system call

Every time a fork() is callled in any user-space code, it internally invokes
the clone() sys call, But if we linux kernel source code there is a system
call by name fork().

So, what i really want to know is that, is there any case in which this
syscall is getting called, or this code is deprecated.
