Rich Felker 27b2fc9d6d fix missing-wake regression in pthread_cond_wait
the reasoning in commit 2d0bbe6c78 was
not entirely correct. while it's true that setting the waiters flag
ensures that the next unlock will perform a wake, it's possible that
the wake is consumed by a mutex waiter that has no relationship with
the condvar wait queue being processed, which then takes the mutex.
when that thread subsequently unlocks, it sees no waiters, and leaves
the rest of the condvar queue stuck.

bring back the waiter count adjustment, but skip it for PI mutexes,
for which a successful lock-after-waiting always sets the waiters bit.
if future changes are made to bring this same waiters-bit contract to
all lock types, this can be reverted.

    musl libc

musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed
implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall
API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl
offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code
and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct
usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and
safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best
achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain.

The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces
defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of
non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and
glibc functionality.

For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file.
Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system
bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on
the project website:
