is safe to call pthread_mutex_init() on the same shared mutex several
times. POSIX claims that the behaviour in this case is undefined.
Make this working by only allowing one caller to initialize the mutex.
Other callers either see already completed initialization and do
nothing, or busy-loop yielding while designated initializer finishes.
Also make the API requirements loose by initializing mutexes on other
pthread_mutex*() calls if they see uninitialized shared mutex.
Only mutexes provide the hack for now, but it could be also
implemented for other process shared primitives from libthr.

do not participate in the global symbols namespace, but rtld locks are
still replaced and functions are interposed. In particular,
__pthread_map_stacks_exec is resolved to the libc version. If a
library is loaded later, which requires adjustment of the stack
protection mode, rtld calls into libc __pthread_map_stacks_exec due to
the symbols scope. The libc version might recurse into binder and
recursively acquire rtld bind lock, causing the hang.
Make libc __pthread_map_stacks_exec() interposed, which synchronizes
rtld locks and version of the stack exec hook when libthr loaded,
regardless of the symbol scope control or symbol resolution order.
The __pthread_map_stacks_exec() symbol is removed from the private
version in libthr since libc symbol now operates correctly in presence
of libthr.

calling thread is supposed to see accesses issued by the initializer.
This means that the read of the once_control->state variable should
have an acquire semantic. Use atomic_thread_fence_acq() when the
value read is ONCE_DONE, instead of straightforward atomic_load_acq(),
to only put a barrier when needed (*).
On the other hand, the updates of the once_control->state with the
intermediate progress state do not need to synchronize with other
state accesses, remove _acq suffix.

Clang emits SSE instructions on amd64 in the common path of
pthread_mutex_unlock. If the thread does not otherwise use SSE,
this usage incurs a context-switch of the FPU/SSE state, which
reduces the performance of multiple real-world applications by a
non-trivial amount (3-5% in one application).
Instead of this change, I experimented with eagerly switching the
FPU state at context-switch time. This did not help. Most of the
cost seems to be in the read/write of memory--as kib@ stated--and
not in the #NM handling. I tested on machines with and without
XSAVEOPT.
One counter-argument to this change is that most applications already
use SIMD, and the number of applications and amount of SIMD usage
are only increasing. This is absolutely true. I agree that--in
general and in principle--this change is in the wrong direction.
However, there are applications that do not use enough SSE to offset
the extra context-switch cost. SSE does not provide a clear benefit
in the current libthr code with the current compiler, but it does
provide a clear loss in some cases. Therefore, disabling SSE in
libthr is a non-loss for most, and a gain for some.
I refrained from disabling SSE in libc--as was suggested--because
I can't make the above argument for libc. It provides a wide variety
of code; each case should be analyzed separately.

to handle per-thread information. Since our pthread_setspecific()
implementation calls calloc(3) to allocate per-thread specific data
storage, things get complicated.
Switch the allocator to use bare mmap(2). There is some loss of the
allocated page, since e.g. on amd64, PTHREAD_KEYS_MAX * sizeof(struct
pthread_specific_elem) is 3K (it actually spans whole page due to
padding), but I believe it is more acceptable than additional code for
specialized allocator().
The alternatives would either to make the specific data array be part of
the struct thread, or use internal bindings to call the libc malloc,
avoiding interposing.
Also do the style pass over the thr_spec.c, esp. simplify the
conditionals nesting by returning early when an error detected.
Remove trivial comments.
