Update.
2000-06-13  Kaz Kylheku  <kaz@ashi.footprints.net>

	A few optimizations.  Got rid of unnecessary wakeups of timer threads,
	tightened up some critical regions and micro-optimized some list
	manipulation code.

	* sysdeps/pthread/timer_routines.c (__timer_thread_queue_timer):
	Returns int value now to indicate whether timer was queued at head.
	* sysdeps/pthread/posix-timer.h: Likewise.
	* sysdeps/pthread/timer_settime.c (timer_settime): Takes advantage of
	new return value from __timer_thread_queue_timer to avoid waking
	up timer thread unnecessarily.

	* sysdeps/pthread/posix-timer.h (timer_id2ptr): No longer checks
	inuse flag, because this requires mutex to be held.  Callers updated
	to do the check when they have the mutex.
	* sysdeps/pthread/timer_getoverr.c: Add check for inuse here.

	* sysdeps/pthread/timer_settime.c (timer_settime): Tighter critical
	regions: avoids making system calls while holding timer mutex, and
	a few computations were moved outside of the mutex as well.
	* sysdeps/pthread/timer_gettime.c (timer_gettime): Likewise.

	* sysdeps/pthread/posix-timer.h (list_unlink_ip): Function name changed
	to list_unlink_ip, meaning idempotent.  Pointer manipulation
	changed to get better better code out of gcc.
	* sysdeps/pthread/timer_routines.c (list_unlink): Non-idempotent
	version of list_unlink added here.
	* sysdeps/pthread/timer_delete.c: Use appropriate list unlink
	function in all places: idempotent one for timers, non-idempotent
	one for thread nodes.
	* sysdeps/pthread/timer_settime: Likewise.
	* sysdeps/pthread/timer_routines.c: Likewise.
