Later gcc and clang have deprecated =v (which maps to a specific temp
register) and instead we should just use =r to have the assembler
(hopefully!) save/restore things appropriately after choosing
a register.
Tested:
* AR9344 SoC, with userreg support
* AR9331 SoC, with no userreg support

This work, originally from Stacey Son, uses the MIPS UserReg for
reading the TLS data, and will fall back to the normal syscall path
when it isn't supported.
This code dynamically patches cpu_switch() to bypass the UserReg
instruction so to avoid generating a machine exception.
Thanks to sson for the original work, and to Dan Nelson for
bringing it to date and testing it on MIPS32 with me.
Tested:
* mips64 (sson)
* mips74k (dnelson_1901@yahoo.com) - AR9344 SoC, UserReg support
* mips24k (adrian) - AR9331 SoC, no UserReg support

The amd64, i386, and sparc64 versions were identical, with the one
difference where the former two used inline asm instead of _tcb_get. I
have compared the function before and after replacing the asm with _tcb_get
and found the object files to be identical.
The arm, mips, and powerpc versions were almost identical. The only
difference was the powerpc version used an alignment of 1 where arm and
mips used 16. As this is an increase in alignment is will be safe.
Along with this arm, mips, and powerpc all passed, when initial was true,
the value returned from _tcb_get as the first argument to
_rtld_allocate_tls. This would then return this pointer back to the caller.
We can remove these extra calls by checking if initial is set and setting
the thread control block directly. As this is what the sparc64 code does
we can use it directly.
As after these observations all the architectures can now have identical
code we can merge them into a common file.
