Paolo Bonzini 24fa90499f qemu-thread: do not use PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK
PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK is completely broken with respect to fork.
The way to safely do fork is to bring all threads to a quiescent
state by acquiring locks (either in callers---as we do for the
iothread mutex---or using pthread_atfork's prepare callbacks)
and then release them in the child.

The problem is that releasing error-checking locks in the child
fails under glibc with EPERM, because the mutex stores a different
owner tid than the duplicated thread in the child process.  We
could make it work for locks acquired via pthread_atfork, by
recreating the mutex in the child instead of unlocking it
(we know that there are no other threads that could have taken
the mutex; but when the lock is acquired in fork's caller
that would not be possible.

The simplest solution is just to forgo error checking.
