Update.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/i486/pthread_barrier_wait.S (pthread_barrier_wait): After wakeup, release lock only when the last thread stopped using the barrier object. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/pthread_barrier_wait.S (pthread_barrier_wait): Likewise. * sysdeps/pthread/pthread_barrier_wait.c (pthread_barrier_wait): Likewise. * Makefile (tests): Add tst-barrier4. * tst-barrier4.c: New file.
