Subject: [PATCH 25/33] linux-user: don't do locking in single-threaded processes

Skips setting the tb_lock if a process doesn't have more than one thread,
which is usually the case. Results in about 20% performance gain (measured
with the s390x target, but the effect should be similar with other targets).
