Fix for CVE-2017-1000366 in glibc
This changeset fixes CVE-2017-1000366 by using the latest glibc revision from the 2.24 glibc git as of today which includes the needed fix. One patch file had to be adapted and overlayed with our custom version (patching just conflicts on ChangeLog, no source file affected).

+Subject: [PATCH] Bug 20116: Fix use after free in pthread_create()
+
+The commit documents the ownership rules around 'struct pthread' and
+when a thread can read or write to the descriptor. With those ownership
+rules in place it becomes obvious that pd->stopped_start should not be
+touched in several of the paths during thread startup, particularly so
+for detached threads. In the case of detached threads, between the time
+the thread is created by the OS kernel and the creating thread checks
+pd->stopped_start, the detached thread might have already exited and the
+memory for pd unmapped. As a regression test we add a simple test which
+exercises this exact case by quickly creating detached threads with
+large enough stacks to ensure the thread stack cache is bypassed and the
+stacks are unmapped. Before the fix the testcase segfaults, after the
+fix it works correctly and completes without issue.
+
+For a detailed discussion see:
+https://www.sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2017-01/msg00505.html

++/* CONCURRENCY NOTES:
++
++ Understanding who is the owner of the 'struct pthread' or 'PD'
++ (refers to the value of the 'struct pthread *pd' function argument)
++ is critically important in determining exactly which operations are
++ allowed and which are not and when, particularly when it comes to the
++ implementation of pthread_create, pthread_join, pthread_detach, and
++ other functions which all operate on PD.
++
++ The owner of PD is responsible for freeing the final resources
++ associated with PD, and may examine the memory underlying PD at any
++ point in time until it frees it back to the OS or to reuse by the
++ runtime.
++
++ The thread which calls pthread_create is called the creating thread.
++ The creating thread begins as the owner of PD.
++
++ During startup the new thread may examine PD in coordination with the
++ owner thread (which may be itself).
++
++ The four cases of ownership transfer are:
++
++ (1) Ownership of PD is released to the process (all threads may use it)
++ after the new thread starts in a joinable state
++ i.e. pthread_create returns a usable pthread_t.
++
++ (2) Ownership of PD is released to the new thread starting in a detached
++ state.
++
++ (3) Ownership of PD is dynamically released to a running thread via
++ pthread_detach.
++
++ (4) Ownership of PD is acquired by the thread which calls pthread_join.
++
++ Implementation notes:
++
++ The PD->stopped_start and thread_ran variables are used to determine
++ exactly which of the four ownership states we are in and therefore
++ what actions can be taken. For example after (2) we cannot read or
++ write from PD anymore since the thread may no longer exist and the
++ memory may be unmapped. The most complicated cases happen during
++ thread startup:
++
++ (a) If the created thread is in a detached (PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED),
++ or joinable (default PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE) state and
++ STOPPED_START is true, then the creating thread has ownership of
++ PD until the PD->lock is released by pthread_create. If any
++ errors occur we are in states (c), (d), or (e) below.
++
++ (b) If the created thread is in a detached state
++ (PTHREAD_CREATED_DETACHED), and STOPPED_START is false, then the
++ creating thread has ownership of PD until it invokes the OS
++ kernel's thread creation routine. If this routine returns
++ without error, then the created thread owns PD; otherwise, see
++ (c) and (e) below.
++
++ (c) If the detached thread setup failed and THREAD_RAN is true, then
++ the creating thread releases ownership to the new thread by
++ sending a cancellation signal. All threads set THREAD_RAN to
++ true as quickly as possible after returning from the OS kernel's
++ thread creation routine.
++
++ (d) If the joinable thread setup failed and THREAD_RAN is true, then
++ then the creating thread retains ownership of PD and must cleanup
++ state. Ownership cannot be released to the process via the
++ return of pthread_create since a non-zero result entails PD is
++ undefined and therefore cannot be joined to free the resources.
++ We privately call pthread_join on the thread to finish handling
++ the resource shutdown (Or at least we should, see bug 19511).
++
++ (e) If the thread creation failed and THREAD_RAN is false, then the
++ creating thread retains ownership of PD and must cleanup state.
++ No waiting for the new thread is required because it never
++ started.
++
++ The nptl_db interface:
++
++ The interface with nptl_db requires that we enqueue PD into a linked
++ list and then call a function which the debugger will trap. The PD
++ will then be dequeued and control returned to the thread. The caller
++ at the time must have ownership of PD and such ownership remains
++ after control returns to thread. The enqueued PD is removed from the
++ linked list by the nptl_db callback td_thr_event_getmsg. The debugger
++ must ensure that the thread does not resume execution, otherwise
++ ownership of PD may be lost and examining PD will not be possible.
++
++ Note that the GNU Debugger as of (December 10th 2015) commit
++ c2c2a31fdb228d41ce3db62b268efea04bd39c18 no longer uses
++ td_thr_event_getmsg and several other related nptl_db interfaces. The
++ principal reason for this is that nptl_db does not support non-stop
++ mode where other threads can run concurrently and modify runtime
++ structures currently in use by the debugger and the nptl_db
++ interface.
++
++ Axioms:
++
++ * The create_thread function can never set stopped_start to false.
++ * The created thread can read stopped_start but never write to it.
++ * The variable thread_ran is set some time after the OS thread
++ creation routine returns, how much time after the thread is created
++ is unspecified, but it should be as quickly as possible.

+- create_thread is obliged to initialize PD->stopped_start. It
+- should be true if the STOPPED_START parameter is true, or if
+- create_thread needs the new thread to synchronize at startup for
+- some other implementation reason. If PD->stopped_start will be

++ create_thread must initialize PD->stopped_start. It should be true
++ if the STOPPED_START parameter is true, or if create_thread needs the
++ new thread to synchronize at startup for some other implementation
++ reason. If STOPPED_START will be true, then create_thread is obliged
++ to lock PD->lock before starting the thread. Then pthread_create
++ unlocks PD->lock which synchronizes-with START_THREAD_DEFN in the
++ child thread which does an acquire/release of PD->lock as the last
++ action before calling the user entry point. The goal of all of this
++ is to ensure that the required initial thread attributes are applied
++ (by the creating thread) before the new thread runs user code. Note
++ that the the functions pthread_getschedparam, pthread_setschedparam,
++ pthread_setschedprio, __pthread_tpp_change_priority, and
++ __pthread_current_priority reuse the same lock, PD->lock, for a
++ similar purpose e.g. synchronizing the setting of similar thread
++ attributes. These functions are never called before the thread is
++ created, so don't participate in startup syncronization, but given
++ that the lock is present already and in the unlocked state, reusing
++ it saves space.
+
+ The return value is zero for success or an errno code for failure.
+ If the return value is ENOMEM, that will be translated to EAGAIN,
+ so create_thread need not do that. On failure, *THREAD_RAN should
