[PATCH v2 2/6] nptl: Fix testcases for new pthread cancellation mechanism

[Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval dot zanella at linaro dot org>]

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

With upcoming fix for BZ#12683, pthread cancellation does not act for:

  1. If syscall is blocked but with some side effects already having
     taken place (e.g. a partial read or write).
  2. After the syscall has returned.

The main change is due the fact programs need to act in syscalls with
side-effects (for instance, to avoid leak of allocated resources or
handle partial read/write).

This patch changes the NPTL testcase that assumes the old behavior and
also changes the tst-backtrace{5,6} to ignore the cancellable wrappers.

Checked on i686-linux-gnu, x86_64-linux-gnu, x86_64-linux-gnux32,
aarch64-linux-gnu, arm-linux-gnueabihf, powerpc64le-linux-gnu,
powerpc-linux-gnu, sparcv9-linux-gnu, and sparc64-linux-gnu.

	* debug/tst-backtrace5.c (handle_signal): Avoid cancellable wrappers
	in backtrace analysis.
	* nptl/tst-cancel4.c (tf_write): Handle cancelled syscall with
	side-effects.
	(tf_send): Likewise.
