This is a new implementation of GSCOPE which largely mirrors its NPTL
counterpart. Same as in NPTL, instead of a global flag shared between
threads, there is now a per-thread GSCOPE flag stored in each thread's
TCB. This makes entering and exiting a GSCOPE faster at the expense of
making THREAD_GSCOPE_WAIT () slower.
The largest win is the elimination of many redundant gsync_wake () RPC
calls; previously, even simplest programs would make dozens of fully
redundant gsync_wake () calls.
