f6d0e8c36f Fix rwlock stall with PREFER_WRITER_NONRECURSIVE_NP (bug 23861)
In the read lock function (__pthread_rwlock_rdlock_full) there was a
code path which would fail to reload __readers while waiting for
PTHREAD_RWLOCK_RWAITING to change. This failure to reload __readers
into a local value meant that various conditionals used the old value
of __readers and with only two threads left it could result in an
indefinite stall of one of the readers (waiting for PTHREAD_RWLOCK_RWAITING
to go to zero, but it never would).

faf8c066df rwlock: Fix explicit hand-over (bug 21298)
Without this fix, the rwlock can fail to execute the explicit hand-over
in certain cases (e.g., empty critical sections that switch quickly between
read and write phases).  This can then lead to errors in how __wrphase_futex
is accessed, which in turn can lead to deadlocks.

cc25c8b4c1 New pthread rwlock that is more scalable.
This replaces the pthread rwlock with a new implementation that uses a
more scalable algorithm (primarily through not using a critical section
anymore to make state changes).  The fast path for rdlock acquisition and
release is now basically a single atomic read-modify write or CAS and a few
branches.  See nptl/pthread_rwlock_common.c for details.
