system headers. Check dynamically for membarrier availability to ensure

Fix: Use a filled signal mask to disable all signals

Changelog from David Pelton's original patch:

While using lttng-ust with an application that was calling fork()
with pending signals, I found that all signals were getting unmasked
shortly before the underlying call to fork().  After some
investigation, I found that the rcu_bp_before_fork() function was
unmasking all signals.  Based on the comments for this function, it
should be masking all signals.  Inspection of the rest of the code
in urcu-bp.c revealed the same pattern in two other functions.

This patch changes the code to use a filled signal mask to disable
all signals.  The change to rcu_bp_before_fork() addressed the
problem I was seeing while using lttng-ust.  The changes to the
other two functions appear to fix other instances of the same
problem.

Updates by Mathieu Desnoyers:

- Use SIG_BLOCK instead of SIG_SETMASK when setting a filled mask. This
  has the same behavior in this case (since we're blocking all signals),
  but is semantically neater: if we ever some signals from that mask,
  we'd like to to a union with the signal mask already blocked by the
  application.
- Also fix incorrect signal masking in compat_arch_x86.c.

urcu: avoid false sharing for rcu_gp_ctr

@rcu_gp_ctr and @registry share the same cache line, it causes
false sharing and slowdown both of the read site and update site.

Fix: Use different cache line for them.

Although rcu_gp_futex is updated less than rcu_gp_ctr, but
they always be accessed at almost the same time, so we also move rcu_gp_futex
to the cacheline of rcu_gp_ctr to reduce the cacheline-usage or cache-missing
of read site.

Fix hurd-i386: move cpuset tests outside of sched_setaffinity conditional

Comment about introduction of cpuset.h within urcu tests:
