Fix race in pthread_mutex_lock while promoting to PTHREAD_MUTEX_ELISION_NP [BZ #23275]

The race leads either to pthread_mutex_destroy returning EBUSY
or triggering an assertion (See description in bugzilla).

This patch is fixing the race by ensuring that the elision path is
used in all cases if elision is enabled by the GLIBC_TUNABLES framework.

The __kind variable in struct __pthread_mutex_s is accessed concurrently.
Therefore we are now using the atomic macros.

The new testcase tst-mutex10 is triggering the race on s390x and intel.
Presumably also on power, but I don't have access to a power machine
with lock-elision. At least the code for power is the same as on the other
two architectures.

ChangeLog:

	[BZ #23275]
	* nptl/tst-mutex10.c: New File.
	* nptl/Makefile (tests): Add tst-mutex10.
	(tst-mutex10-ENV): New variable.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/s390/force-elision.h: (FORCE_ELISION):
	Ensure that elision path is used if elision is available.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/force-elision.h (FORCE_ELISION):
	Likewise.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86/force-elision.h: (FORCE_ELISION):
	Likewise.
	* nptl/pthreadP.h (PTHREAD_MUTEX_TYPE, PTHREAD_MUTEX_TYPE_ELISION)
	(PTHREAD_MUTEX_PSHARED): Use atomic_load_relaxed.
	* nptl/pthread_mutex_consistent.c (pthread_mutex_consistent): Likewise.
	* nptl/pthread_mutex_getprioceiling.c (pthread_mutex_getprioceiling):

+     Concurrency notes:
+     The __kind of a mutex is initialized either by the static
+     PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER or by a call to pthread_mutex_init.
+
+     After a mutex has been initialized, the __kind of a mutex is usually not
+     changed.  BUT it can be set to -1 in pthread_mutex_destroy or elision can
+     be enabled.  This is done concurrently in the pthread_mutex_*lock functions
+     by using the macro FORCE_ELISION. This macro is only defined for
+     architectures which supports lock elision.
+
+     For elision, there are the flags PTHREAD_MUTEX_ELISION_NP and
+     PTHREAD_MUTEX_NO_ELISION_NP which can be set in addition to the already set
+     type of a mutex.
+     Before a mutex is initialized, only PTHREAD_MUTEX_NO_ELISION_NP can be set
+     with pthread_mutexattr_settype.
+     After a mutex has been initialized, the functions pthread_mutex_*lock can
+     enable elision - if the mutex-type and the machine supports it - by setting
+     the flag PTHREAD_MUTEX_ELISION_NP. This is done concurrently. Afterwards
+     the lock / unlock functions are using specific elision code-paths.  */
