IFUNCs in libpthread

[Steve Ellcey]

I have a question about multiarch directories and IFUNC.  I am
looking at the possibility of making pthread_spin_lock an IFUNC
on aarch64 so that there can be a version using LSE instructions
if they are available.  Right now, the only IFUNC's are in libc,
so having one in libpthread would be a new situation.

I am trying to decide if the multiarch routines should be in
sysdeps/aarch64/multiarch (where libc multiarch files go and
where I would like to put my memcpy/memmove IFUNCs), or if
I should create a sysdeps/aarch64/multiarch/nptl directory or
perhaps a sysdeps/aarch64/nptl/multiarch directory.

What do people think?  Is there a preference for where these
should go?  I think any location is going to require some Makefile
or configure changes and I would like to have some idea of the
'right' place before I work on that.
