ia64: Fix thread stack allocation permission set (BZ #21672)
This patch fixes ia64 failures on thread exit by madvise the required area taking in consideration its disjoing stacks (NEED_SEPARATE_REGISTER_STACK). Also the snippet that setup the madvise call to advertise kernel the area won't be used anymore in near future is reallocated in allocatestack.c (for consistency to put all stack management function in one place). Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu for sanity (since it is not expected code changes for architecture that do not define NEED_SEPARATE_REGISTER_STACK) and also got a report that it fixes ia64-linux-gnu failures from Sergei Trofimovich <slyfox@gentoo.org>. [BZ #21672] * nptl/allocatestack.c [_STACK_GROWS_DOWN] (setup_stack_prot): Set to use !NEED_SEPARATE_REGISTER_STACK as well. (advise_stack_range): New function. * nptl/pthread_create.c (START_THREAD_DEFN): Move logic to mark stack non required to advise_stack_range at allocatestack.c
