I saw these fail on the glibc shadow stack branch today, and I also saw
this one failing:
FAIL: nptl/tst-robustpi8

It spit out:
mutex_timedlock of 41 in thread 1 failed with 22
child did not die of a signal in round 1

After the fix here I saw the others pass, but still not tst-robustpi8.
Not sure if it is some shadow stack complication. I can try to dig in
tomorrow if the problem doesn't jump out.
