The syscall wrappers had to save and restore the syscall parameter
values and return value when calling the functions to enable/disable
cancellation were called. Not anymore. The called functions are
special and don't modify any unexpected registers.
SSE registers are used for passing parameters and must be preserved
in runtime relocations. This is inside ld.so enforced through the
tests in tst-xmmymm.sh. But the malloc routines used after startup
come from libc.so and can be arbitrarily complex. It's overkill
to save the SSE registers all the time because of that. These calls
are rare. Instead we save them on demand. The new infrastructure
put in place in this patch makes this possible and efficient.
