I was looking at a current glibc using objdump today and saw an odd
plt call stub.

0000000000044d80 <00000033.plt_call.__strchrnul>:
   44d80:       f8 41 00 28     std     r2,40(r1)
   44d84:       e9 82 8c f8     ld      r12,-29448(r2)
   44d88:       7d 89 03 a6     mtctr   r12
   44d8c:       e8 42 8d 00     ld      r2,-29440(r2)
   44d90:       28 22 00 00     cmpldi  r2,0
   44d94:       4c e2 04 20     bnectr+
   44d98:       48 13 84 f0     b       17d288 <realloc@plt>

What?  It doesn't branch to __strchrnul@plt on finding a zero r2?

Turns out this isn't a real problem since the stub is for loading an
ifunc, so will not be lazily resolved and thus r2 will never be zero.
Of course, that means the thread-safety check is unnecessary.

I also tweak the special __tls_get_addr_opt call stub here, to
restore r2 immediately after the call.  Not doing that might affect
eh_frame unwinding.

* elf64-ppc.c (plt_stub_size, build_plt_stub): Don't build
thread-safe stubs for iplt.
(build_tls_get_addr_stub): Restore r2 immediately after call.
