In practice, with this implementation we never need to make a system call.
We get the main thread's tid (which is the same as our pid) back from
the set_tid_address system call we have to make during initialization.
A new pthread will have the same pid as its parent, and a fork child's
main (and only) thread will have a pid equal to its tid, which we get for
free from the kernel before clone returns.
The only time we'd actually have to make a getpid system call now is if
we take a signal during fork and the signal handler calls getpid. (That,
or we call getpid in the dynamic linker while it's still dealing with its
own relocations and hasn't even set up the main thread yet.)

The problem with the original patch was that using syscall(3) means that
errno can be set, but pthread_create(3) was abusing the TLS errno slot as
a pthread_mutex_t for the thread startup handshake.
There was also a mistake in the check for syscall failures --- it should
have checked against -1 instead of 0 (not just because that's the default
idiom, but also here because futex(2) can legitimately return values > 0).
This patch stops abusing the TLS errno slot and adds a pthread_mutex_t to
pthread_internal_t instead. (Note that for LP64 sizeof(pthread_mutex_t) >
sizeof(uintptr_t), so we could potentially clobber other TLS slots too.)
I've also rewritten the LP32 compatibility stubs to directly reuse the
code from the .h file.
This reverts commit 75c55ff84e.

glibc doesn't have tkill or tgkill and says "use syscall(3) instead".
I've left tgkill since it's quite widely used, but there's no reason
to have tkill as well.

The situation here is a bit confusing. On 64-bit, rlimit and rlimit64 are
the same, and so getrlimit/getrlimit64, setrlimit/setrlimit64,
and prlimit/prlimit64 are all the same. On 32-bit, rlimit and rlimit64 are
different. 32-bit architectures other than MIPS go one step further by having
an even more limited getrlimit system call, so arm and x86 need to use
ugetrlimit instead of getrlimit. Worse, the 32-bit architectures don't have
64-bit getrlimit- and setrlimit-equivalent system calls, and you have to use
prlimit64 instead. There's no 32-bit prlimit system call, so there's no
easy implementation of that --- what should we do if the result of prlimit64
won't fit in a struct rlimit? Since 32-bit survived without prlimit/prlimit64
for this long, I'm not going to bother implementing prlimit for 32-bit.
We need the rlimit64 functions to be able to build strace 4.8 out of the box.

Since the ENTRY/END macros now have .cfi_startproc/.cfi_endproc, most of the
custom arm assembly has no unwind information. Adding the proper cfi directives
for these and removing the arm directives.
Update the gensyscalls.py script to add these cfi directives for the generated
assembly. Also fix the references to non-uapi headers to the proper uapi
header.
In addition, remove the kill.S, tkill.S, tgkill.S for arm since they are not
needed at all. The unwinder (libunwind) is able to properly unwind using the
normal abort.
After this change, I can unwind through the system calls again.

The kernel now maintains the pthread_internal_t::tid field for us,
and __clone was only used in one place so let's inline it so we don't
have to leave such a dangerous function lying around. Also rename
files to match their content and remove some useless #includes.

Let the kernel keep pthread_internal_t::tid updated, including
across forks and for the main thread. This then lets us fix
pthread_join to only return after the thread has really exited.
Also fix the thread attributes of the main thread so we don't
unmap the main thread's stack (which is really owned by the
dynamic linker and contains things like environment variables),
which fixes crashes when joining with an exited main thread
and also fixes problems reported publicly with accessing environment
variables after the main thread exits (for which I've added a new
unit test).
In passing I also fixed a bug where if the clone(2) inside
pthread_create(3) fails, we'd unmap the child's stack and TLS (which
contains the mutex) and then try to unlock the mutex. Boom! It wasn't
until after I'd uploaded the fix for this that I came across a new
public bug reporting this exact failure.

Some MIPS kernels do not correctly restart interrupted system calls that
have been invoked using the indirect syscall (NR_syscall).
The simplest workaround is to handle the indirection in userland and then
call the required system call directly.

In practice, thanks to all the registers the stubs don't actually change,
but it's confusing to have an incorrect declaration.
I suspect that fcntl remains broken for aarch64; it happens to work for
x86_64 because the first vararg argument gets placed in the right register
anyway, but I have no reason to believe that's true for aarch64.
This patch adds a unit test, though, so we'll be able to tell when we get
as far as running the unit tests.

I've left the exit_group syscall as _exit because otherwise we'd have to
convince the compiler that our _exit (which just calls __exit_group) is
actually "noreturn", and it seems like that would be less clean than just
cutting out the middleman.
We'll just have to trust ourselves not to add anything to SYSCALLS.TXT
that ought to be private but that only has a single leading underscore.
Hopefully we can manage that.
