[PATCH 03/13] nptl: Remove clockwait_tid

Adhemerval Zanella adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org
Mon Nov 23 19:52:46 GMT 2020


It can be replaced with a __futex_abstimed_wait_cancelable64 call,
with the advantage that there is no need to further clock adjustments
to create a absolute timeout.  It allows to remove the now ununsed
futex_timed_wait_cancel64 internal function.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.
