Adhemerval Zanella d7e4c642ef Small optimization for lowlevellock
This patch optimizes both __lll_lock_wait_private and __lll_lock_wait
by issuing only one lll_futex_wait.  Since it is defined as an inlined
syscall and inlined syscalls are defined using inlined assembly the
compiler usually can not see both calls are equal and optimize
accordingly.

On aarch64 the resulting binary is change from:

I see similar changes on powerpc and other architectures.  It also aligns
with x86_64 implementation by adding the systemtap probes.

Checker on aarch64-linux-gnu.

	* nptl/lowlevellock.c (__lll_lock_wait, __lll_lock_wait_private):
	Optimize futex call and add systemtap probe.
