900778283a ("htl: make pthread_spin_lock really spin") made
pthread_spin_lock really spin and not block, but the current users of
__pthread_spin_lock were assuming that it blocks, i.e. they use it as a
lightweight mutex fitting in just one int.
__pthread_spin_wait provides that support back.
This should be unconditionally set to match the common implementation,
and fixes multiple test failures related to sprintf.

They were not getting used anyway.
Also do not make libsupport use them, it would make tests using it have
to be made to link against libmachuser for gsync_wait.
Particularly on CPUs without ERMS, the string instructions are slow,
so it is unclear whether this architecture-specific implementation is
in fact an optimization.
so it gets shared by nptl and htl. Also add htl versions of thrd_current and
thrd_yield.

The O_PATH-based fchmodat emulation will rely on the fact that closing
an O_PATH descriptor never releases POSIX advisory locks, so this
commit adds a test case for this behavior.
This patch provides new __settimeofday64 explicit 64 bit function for setting
64 bit time in the kernel (by internally calling __clock_settime64).
Moreover, a 32 bit version - __settimeofday has been refactored to internally
use __settimeofday64.
The __settimeofday is now supposed to be used on systems still supporting 32
bit time (__TIMESIZE != 64) - hence the necessary conversion of struct
timeval to 64 bit struct __timespec64.
Internally the settimeofday uses __settimeofday64. This patch is necessary
for having architectures with __WORDSIZE == 32 Y2038 safe.

Above tests were performed with Y2038 redirection applied as well as without
to test proper usage of both __settimeofday64 and __settimeofday.

The name 'valid_timeval64_to_timeval' suggest conversion of struct
__timeval64 to struct timeval (as in ./include/time.h).
As on the alpha the struct timeval supports 64 bit time, it seems more
feasible to emphasis struct timeval32 in the conversion function name.
Hence the helper function naming change to 'valid_timeval_to_timeval32'.

Without this patch the naming convention for functions to convert
struct timeval32 to struct timeval (which supports 64 bit time on Alpha) was
a bit misleading. The name 'valid_timeval_to_timeval64' suggest conversion
of struct timeval to struct __timeval64 (as in ./include/time.h).
As on alpha the struct timeval supports 64 bit time it seems more readable
to emphasis struct timeval32 in the conversion function name.

The __suseconds64_t type is supposed to be the 64 bit type across all
architectures.
It would be mostly used internally in the glibc - however, when passed to
Linux kernel (very unlikely), if necessary, it shall be converted to 32
bit type (i.e. __suseconds_t)

This patch updates the kernel version in the test tst-mman-consts.py
to 5.5. (There are no new constants covered by this test in 5.5 that
need any other header changes.)
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py.
