I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
GCC 11 -Warray-bounds triggers invalid warnings when building

The struct allocated for !SIGEV_THREAD timers only requires two 'int'
fields (sigev_notify and ktimerid) and the offsetof trick tries minimize
the memory usage by only allocation the required size. However,
although the resulting size is suffice for !SIGEV_THREAD time, accessing
the partially allocated object is error-prone and UB.
This patch fixes both issues by embedding the information whether
the timer if a SIGEV_THREAD in the returned 'timer_t'. For
!SIGEV_THREAD, the resulting 'timer_t' is the returned kernel timer
identifer (kernel_timer_t), while for SIGEV_THREAD it uses the fact
malloc returns at least _Alignof (max_align_t) pointers plus that
valid kernel_timer_t are always positive to set MSB bit of the returned
'timer_t' to indicate the timer handles a SIGEV_THREAD.
It allows to remove the memory allocation for !SIGEV_THREAD and also
remove the 'sigev_notify' field from 'struct timer'.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.
The x86_64 specific timer_settime implementation (from
./linux/x86_64/timer_settime.c) reused the Linux generic one (from
./linux/timer_settime.c) to implement handling some compatible timers
(previously defined in librt, now in libc).
As the generic implementation now is going to also support new (available
from Linux 5.1+) timer_settime64 syscall, those two implementations have
been decoupled for easier conversion.
The original INLINE_SYSCALL() macro has been replaced with
INLINE_SYSCALL_CALL() to avoid explicit passing the number of arguments.
