Comment (by hailin):

 If there are no other cases which assumes, and whose behaviors rely on,
 the default post_parent=0 value, I think we can remove 'post_parent' => 0.

 Basically the logic should be:

 1. If the caller knows post_parent, caller should pass in an valid integer

 2. If the caller doesn't know post_parent, get_posts should honor caller's
 true intention, which is "I don't know whom my daddy is, it can be anyone
 in the world; could be 0 or any other value", thus should not assume it is
 0.

 After removing it, the wpmu plugin call works fine.

 I don't have other regression cases.
