I mechanically confirmed for all archs that with the first two patches
applied, disassembly of pthread_self.o before/after doesn't change. The
third patch obviously changes the offset for most archs due to change in
sizeof struct pthread.
Only other remark: ricv64's __get_tp misses the change of the variable type
from char * to uintptr_t.
