The per-thread state is refactored two use two strategies:
1. The default one uses a TLS structure, which will be placed in the
static TLS space (using __thread keyword).
2. Linux allocates via struct pthread and access it through THREAD_*
macros.
The default strategy has the disadvantage of increasing libc.so static
TLS consumption and thus decreasing the possible surplus used in
some scenarios (which might be mitigated by BZ#25051 fix).
It is used only on Hurd, where accessing the thread storage in the in
single thread case is not straightforward (afaiu, Hurd developers could
correct me here).
The fallback static allocation used for allocation failure is also
removed: defining its size is problematic without synchronizing with
translated messages (to avoid partial translation) and the resulting

- m68k also provides an optimized implementation, and the new version

clock_adjtime64 syscall.
As the struct's __kernel_timex size is the same as for archs with
__WORDSIZE == 64, proper padding and data types conversion (i.e. long to long
long) had to be added for architectures with __WORDSIZE == 32 &&
__TIMESIZE != 64.
Moreover, it stores time in struct __timeval64 rather than struct
timeval, which makes it Y2038-proof.

Add a C wrapper to pass arguments in

extern int prctl (int __option, ...) __THROW;
to prctl syscall:
extern int prctl (int, unsigned long int, unsigned long int,
unsigned long int, unsigned long int);
On platforms where long double may have two different formats, i.e.: the
same format as double (64-bits) or something else (128-bits), building
with -mlong-double-128 is the default and function calls in the user
program match the name of the function in Glibc. When building with
-mlong-double-64, Glibc installed headers redirect such calls to the
appropriate function.
Likewise, the internals of glibc are now built against IEEE long double.
However, the only (minimally) notable usage of long double is difftime.
