This work is now complete. Rafal should commit this ASAP.

I think C11 threads should be deferred until 2.28 opens, and I will continue review.

With those two out of the way all that remains is fixing the x86 bug.

We should stick to discussing release blockers:
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Release/2.27#Release_blockers.3F

All "Desirable this release" should be deferred to 2.28.
