The amd64, i386, and sparc64 versions were identical, with the one
difference where the former two used inline asm instead of _tcb_get. I
have compared the function before and after replacing the asm with _tcb_get
and found the object files to be identical.
The arm, mips, and powerpc versions were almost identical. The only
difference was the powerpc version used an alignment of 1 where arm and
mips used 16. As this is an increase in alignment is will be safe.
Along with this arm, mips, and powerpc all passed, when initial was true,
the value returned from _tcb_get as the first argument to
_rtld_allocate_tls. This would then return this pointer back to the caller.
We can remove these extra calls by checking if initial is set and setting
the thread control block directly. As this is what the sparc64 code does
we can use it directly.
As after these observations all the architectures can now have identical
code we can merge them into a common file.

o Set TP using inline assembly to avoid dead code elimination.
o Eliminate _tcb.
Merge from r161840:
Stylize: avoid using a global register variable.
Merge from r157461:
Simplify _get_curthread() and _tcb_ctor because libc and rtld now
already allocate thread pointer space in tls block for initial thread.
Merge from r177853:
Replace function _umtx_op with _umtx_op_err, the later function directly
returns errno, because errno can be mucked by user's signal handler and
most of pthread api heavily depends on errno to be correct, this change
should improve stability of the thread library.

For all libthr contexts, use ${MACHINE_CPUARCH}
for all libc contexts, use ${MACHINE_ARCH} if it exists, otherwise use
${MACHINE_CPUARCH}
Move some common code up a layer (the .PATH statement was the same in
all the arch submakefiles).
# Hope she hasn't busted powerpc64 with this...
1. fast simple type mutex.
2. __thread tls works.
3. asynchronous cancellation works ( using signal ).
4. thread synchronization is fully based on umtx, mainly, condition
variable and other synchronization objects were rewritten by using
umtx directly. those objects can be shared between processes via
shared memory, it has to change ABI which does not happen yet.
5. default stack size is increased to 1M on 32 bits platform, 2M for
64 bits platform.
As the result, some mysql super-smack benchmarks show performance is
improved massivly.

as curthread in the new context, so that it will be set automatically when
the thread is switched to. This fixes a race where we'd run for a little
while with curthread unset in _thread_start.
