RFC elf: Fix slow tls access after dlopen [BZ #19924]nsz/bug19329-v2
In short: __tls_get_addr checks the global generation counter, _dl_update_slotinfo updates up to the generation of the accessed module. If the global generation is newer than geneneration of the module then __tls_get_addr keeps hitting the slow path that updates the dtv. Possible approaches i can see: 1. update to global generation instead of module, 2. check the module generation in the fast path. This patch is 1.: it needs additional sync (load acquire) so the slotinfo list is up to date with the observed global generation. Approach 2. would require walking the slotinfo list at all times. I don't know how to make that fast with many modules. Note: in the x86_64 version of dl-tls.c the generation is only loaded once, since relaxed mo is not faster than acquire mo load. I have not benchmarked this yet.
