[PATCH 3/4] S390: Use new __libc_tbegin_retry macro in elision-lock.c.


This patch implements __libc_tbegin_retry macro which is equivalent to
gcc builtin __builtin_tbegin_retry, except the changes which were applied
to __libc_tbegin in the previous patch.

If tbegin aborts with _HTM_TBEGIN_TRANSIENT.  Then this macros restores
the fpc, fprs and automatically retries up to retry_cnt tbegins.
Further saving of the state is omitted as it is already saved in the
first round.  Before retrying a further transaction, the
transaction-abort-assist instruction is used to support the cpu.

This macro is now used in function __lll_lock_elision.

ChangeLog:

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/s390/htm.h(__libc_tbegin_retry): New macro.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/s390/elision-lock.c (__lll_lock_elision):
	Use __libc_tbegin_retry macro.
