From: Adhemerval Zanella Netto <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>

They are both used by __libc_freeres to free all library malloc
allocated resources to help tooling like mtrace or valgrind with
memory leak tracking.

The current scheme uses assembly markers and linker script entries
to consolidate the free routine function pointers in the RELRO segment
and to be freed buffers in BSS.

This patch changes it to use specific free functions for
libc_freeres_ptrs buffers and call the function pointer array directly
with call_function_static_weak.

It allows the removal of both the internal macros and the linker
script sections.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, and aarch64-linux-gnu.

-
-   A single public API exists and is __libc_freeres(), and this is used
-   by applications like valgrind to freee resouces.
-
-   There are 3 cases:
-
-   (a) __libc_freeres
-
-	In this case all you need to do is define the freeing routine:
-
-	foo.c:
-	libfoo_freeres_fn (foo_freeres)
-	{
-	  complex_free (mem);
-	}
-
-	This ensures the function is called at the right point to free
-	resources.
-
-   (b) __libc_freeres_ptr
-
-	The framework for (a) iterates over the list of pointers-to-free
-	in (b) and frees them.
-
-	foo.c:
-	libc_freeres_ptr (static char *foo_buffer);
-
-	Freeing these resources alaways happens last and is equivalent
-	to registering a function that does 'free (foo_buffer)'.
-
-   (c) Explicit lists of free routines to call or objects to free.
-
-	It is the intended goal to remove (a) and (b) which have some
-	non-determinism based on link order, and instead use explicit
-	lists of functions and frees to resolve cleanup ordering issues
-	and make it easy to debug and maintain.
-
-	As of today the following subsystems use (c):
-
-	Per-thread cleanup:
-	* malloc/thread-freeres.c
-
-	libdl cleanup:
-	* dlfcn/dlfreeres.c
-
-	libpthread cleanup:
-	* nptl/nptlfreeres.c
-
-	So if you need any shutdown routines to run you should add them
-	directly to the appropriate subsystem's shutdown list.  */
