after the thread unmaps its own stack/thread structure, the kernel,
performing child tid clear and futex wake, could clobber a new mapping
made at the same location as the just-removed thread's tid field.
disable kernel clearing of child tid to prevent this.

the mips abi reserves stack space equal to the size of the in-register
args for the callee to save the args, if desired. this would cause the
beginning of the thread structure to be clobbered...

the old code worked in qemu app-level emulation, but not on real
kernels where the clone syscall does not copy the register values to
the new thread. save arguments on the new thread stack instead.

with this change, threads on mips seem to be working

on other archs, like x86[_64], asm version is required

basically, this version of the code was obtained by starting with
rdp's work from his ellcc source tree, adapting it to musl's build
system and coding style, auditing the bits headers for discrepencies
with kernel definitions or glibc/LSB ABI or large file issues, fixing
up incompatibility with the old binutils from aboriginal linux, and
adding some new special cases to deal with the oddities of sigaction
and pipe syscall interfaces on mips.
at present, minimal test programs work, but some interfaces are broken
or missing. threaded programs probably will not link.

the type doesn't actually matter, just the size, but it's nice to be
consistent...
