[PATCH v4 12/12] nptl: Remove futex_supports_exact_relative_timeouts


The only implementation of futex_supports_exact_relative_timeouts always
returns true. Let's remove it and all its callers.

* nptl/pthread_cond_wait.c: (__pthread_cond_clockwait): Remove code that is
  only useful if futex_supports_exact_relative_timeouts () returns false.

* nptl/pthread_condattr_setclock.c: (pthread_condattr_setclock): Likewise.

* sysdeps/nptl/futex-internal.h: Remove comment about relative timeouts
  potentially being imprecise since it's no longer true. Remove declaration
  of futex_supports_exact_relative_timeouts.

* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/futex-internal.h: Remove implementation of
  futex_supports_exact_relative_timeouts.
