commit 6a5d6ea128153f5a00d8c80f15f76004006767da
Author: Torvald Riegel <triegel@redhat.com>

    benchtests: Add pthread_once common-case test.
    
    We have a single thread that runs a no-op initialization once and then
    repeatedly runs checks of the initialization (i.e., an acquire load and
    conditional jump) in a tight loop.  This gives us, on average, the
    best-case latency of pthread_once (the initialization is the
    exactly-once slow path, and we're not looking at initialization-related
    synchronization overheads in this case).
