nptl: Remove vfork IFUNC-based forwarder from libpthread [BZ #20188]
With commit f0b2132b35248c1f4a80f62a2c38cddcc802aa8c ("ld.so: Support moving versioned symbols between sonames [BZ #24741]"), the dynamic linker will find the definition of vfork in libc and binds a vfork reference to that symbol, even if the soname in the version reference says that the symbol should be located in libpthread. As a result, the forwarder (whether it's IFUNC-based or a duplicate of the libc implementation) is no longer necessary. On older architectures, a placeholder symbol is required, to make sure that the GLIBC_2.1.2 symbol version does not go away, or is turned in to a weak symbol definition by the link editor. (The symbol version needs to preserved so that the symbol coverage check in elf/dl-version.c does not fail for old binaries.) mips32 is an outlier: It defined __vfork@@GLIBC_2.2, but the baseline is GLIBC_2.0. Since there are other @@GLIBC_2.2 symbols, the placeholder symbol is not needed there.
