Fix: dynamic fallback to compat futex on sys_futex ENOSYS

Fix: dynamic fallback to compat futex on sys_futex ENOSYS

Some MIPS processors (e.g. Cavium Octeon II) dynamically check if the
CPU supports ll/sc within sys_futex, and return a ENOSYS errno if they
don't, even though the architecture implements sys_futex.

Handle this situation by always building the sys_futex compatibility
layer, and fall-back on it if sys_futex return a ENOSYS errno. This is
a tiny compat layer which adds very little space overhead.

This adds an unlikely branch on return from sys_futex, which should
not be an issue performance-wise (we've already taken a system call).

Since this is a fall-back mode, don't try to be clever, and don't cache
the result, so that the common cases (architectures with a properly
working sys_futex) don't get two conditional branches, just one.
