Hello Austin,

that might take some time ... first I have to test the hypothesis by making a
patch to my own kernel (thread_info needs to be extended to carry additional
user TLS value, thread context switch save/restore etc.).
I don't want to request a new kernel feature (which is an invasive change to
some integral kernel structure/code) when other userland code not under control
of Wine might also take advantage of this freely available TLS register.

There exist a large amount of proprietary kernel forks -> BSPs for ARM based
platforms based on gazillion different versions of vanilla kernels and I'm
sitting on one ... :(
André's kernel has explicit zero out of TPIDRURW while mine doesn't even care
for it.

Regards
