elf: Partially initialize ld.so after static dlopen (bug 20802)
After static dlopen, a copy of ld.so is loaded into the inner namespace, but that copy is not initialized at all. Some architectures run into serious problems as result, which is why the _dl_var_init mechanism was invented. With libpthread moving into libc and parts into ld.so, more architectures impacted, so it makes sense to switch to a generic mechanism which performs the partial initialization. As a result, getauxval now works after static dlopen (bug 20802). Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>
