Subject: [RFC PATCH v6 5/5] Thread-local ABI: wire up x86 32/64 system call
Date: Mon,  4 Apr 2016 13:01:53 -0400

Wire up the thread-local ABI system call on x86 32/64.

This provides an ABI improving the speed of a getcpu operation
on x86 by removing the need to perform a function call, "lsl"
instruction, or system call on the fast path.

The thread-local ABI can be extended to add features in the future.
