581c785bf3 Update copyright dates with scripts/update-copyrights
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 7061 files FOO.

I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah.  I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

remote: *** 912-#endif
remote: *** 913:
remote: *** 914-
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
...
remote: *** error: sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/statx_cp.c: trailing lines

95e114a091 nptl: Add rseq registration
The rseq area is placed directly into struct pthread.  rseq
registration failure is not treated as an error, so it is possible
that threads run with inconsistent registration status.

<sys/rseq.h> is not yet installed as a public header.

efedd1ed3d Linux: Remove rseq support
The kernel ABI is not finalized, and there are now various proposals
to change the size of struct rseq, which would make the glibc ABI
dependent on the version of the kernels used for building glibc.
This is of course not acceptable.

This reverts commit 48699da1c4 ("elf:
Support at least 32-byte alignment in static dlopen"), commit
8f4632deb3 ("Linux: rseq registration
tests"), commit 6e29cb3f61 ("Linux: Use
rseq in sched_getcpu if available"), and commit
0c76fc3c2b ("Linux: Perform rseq
registration at C startup and thread creation"), resolving the conflicts
introduced by the ARC port and the TLS static surplus changes.

8f4632deb3 Linux: rseq registration tests
These tests validate that rseq is registered from various execution
contexts (main thread, destructor, other threads, other threads created
from destructor, forked process (without exec), pthread_atfork handlers,
pthread setspecific destructors, signal handlers, atexit handlers).

tst-rseq.c only links against libc.so, testing registration of rseq in
a non-multithreaded environment.

tst-rseq-nptl.c also links against libpthread.so, testing registration
of rseq in a multithreaded environment.

See the Linux kernel selftests for extensive rseq stress-tests.
