    libpthread: allocate rwlocks and spinlocks in dedicated cachelines

    Reduces severe performance degradation due to false-sharing. Note that this
    does not account for hardware which can perform adjacent cacheline
prefetch.

    [mjg: massaged the commit message and the patch to use aligned_alloc
    instead of malloc]
