[PATCH] aarch64: Add split-stack TCB field


From: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>

This patch adds a new TCB field meant to be used by GCC split-stack
option. A new symbol, __tcb_private_ss, is also added to version
control the private TCB field.

For AArch64 the TCB access is the most efficient one, since for
split-stack a per-thread variable is required and TLS initial-exec
mode requires a GOT access.

Checked on aarch64 and this is meant for 2.25.

	* sysdeps/aarch64/Makefile [$(subdir) == elf] (sysdep-dl-routines):
	Add tcb-version.
	* sysdeps/aarch64/Version [ld] (GLIBC_2.25): Define __tcb_private
	ss;
	* sysdeps/aarch64/nptl/tls.h (tcbhead_t): Add __private_ss field.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64/ld.abilist: Add GLIBC_2.25 and
	__tcb_private_ss.
	* sysdeps/aarch64/tcb-version.c: New file.
