SImilar to your patch my motivation is to enable current supported TLS but for aarch64. The patch does not really touch any aarch64 specifics bits (I plan to send another patch after this is reviewed), and the ideia is to make possible to use this TLS descriptor code not only to support aarch64, but all architectures that have TLS dsecriptor abi (arm, i386, x86_64, and aarch64).

I got some initial reviews, but currently it requires a thoughtfully one.
