Use tgkill instead of tkill to implement pthread_kill.
This is safer in the event that the thread has already terminated
and its id has been reused by a different process.

The kernel has supported this syscall for quite some time now,
but bionic did not. Now that there is a need for it, let's
add it to bionic.

Make the scripts use external/kernel-headers/original by default.
clean_header.py: Document -k<path>, add -d<path>
find_headers.py: Make kernel config files optional
update_all.py: Allow setting the path to kernel headers on the command-line
update_all.py: Better formatting of output on ttys
update_all.py: Automatically perform "git add/rm" on affected files.
SYSCALLS.TXT: Fix typo in __socketcall definition.
checksyscalls.py: Add support for superH architecture in the checks.
gensyscalls.py: Automatically perform "git add/rm" on affected files.
cpp.py: Fixed a bug that prevented certain type definitions to
be kept in the generated clean header (e.g.
struct ethtool_drvinfo in <linux/ethtool.h>)
All scripts will use the content of external/kernel-headers/original by default now.
The generated code removes all empty lines and trailing whitespace. This is useful
to ensure a unified output even if we change the parser again in the future.
The top-level disclaimer has been edited with update instructions to regenerate
the headers when needed.
Also, a warning is now inserted every 8th line in the final output:
/* WARNING: DO NOT EDIT, AUTO-GENERATED CODE - SEE TOP FOR INSTRUCTIONS */
Changes under kernel/arch-arm and kernel/arch-x86 should correspond to whitespace
differences and additionnal struct definitions that were missed by the previous
parser implementation.

WARNING: If you run these script, do not submit the result to gerrit for now.
It seems there are discrepancies between the content of original headers
and those currently commited under bionic/libc/kernel/.
(This problem is the main motivation to insert the warning repeatedly).
Current list of issues:
- Missing SuperH headers (i.e. external/kernel-headers/original/asm-sh)
This patch improves the handling of 64-bit parameters in syscalls on ARM.
The ARM EABI mandates that 64-bit quantities be passed in even/odd register
pairs, which requires special treatment.
This allows us to simplify our implementations of pread() and pwrite()
and remove the C stubs for pread64() and pwrite64().
Also add ftruncate64() to <unistd.h>

Bug 3107933
This adds the cpu_set_t type definition and related functions
and macros used to handle CPU thread affinity.
sched_getcpu()
sched_setaffinity()
sched_getaffinity()

With this patch, _and_ an upcoming build/ patch, the destruction
of static C++ objects contained in shared libraries will happen
properly when dlclose() is called.
Note that this change introduces crtbegin_so.S and crtend_so.S which
are currently ignored by the build system.
+ move definition of __dso_handle to the right place
(before that, all shared libraries used the __dso_handle
global variable from the C library).
Note that we keep a 'weak' __dso_handle in aeabi.c to avoid
breaking the build until the next patch to build/core/combo/
appears. We will be able to remove that later.
+ move bionic/aeabi.c to arch-arm/bionic/ (its proper location)

NOTE: The NDK will need to be modified to enable this feature in
the shared libraries that are generated through it.
This does not change the implementation of conditional variables
since we're waiting for other system components to properly use
pthread_condattr_init/setpshared before that.
Also remove an obsolete x86 source file.

Private futexes are a recent kernel addition: faster futexes that cannot be
shared between processes. This patch uses them by default, unless the PROCESS_SHARED
attribute flag is used when creating a mutex and/or conditional variable.
Also introduces pthread_condattr_init/destroy/setpshared/getpshared.

Any of the setuid functions now updates /acct/uid/ with its own tid
before changing users. This is so we can properly account for cpu time
per uid.

Only provide an implementation for ARM at the moment, since
it requires specific assembly fragments (the standard syscall
stubs cannot be used because the child returns in a different
stack).
