Dear Maintainer,

glibc after 2.26 (included) and before 2.30 hangs in pthread_rwlock_tryrwlock
and pthread_rwlock_tryrdlock, the details and test cases can be found in
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23844#c14

This especially hits BIND 9.16 when using pthread_rwlock (instead of custom ISC
rwlock).

So, could you please fix this in buster?  For sid, this will get fixed as part
of regular updated to 2.30,

The patch is quite small and the impact of pthread_rwlock_try(rw|rd)lock()
hanging is pretty severe.  Also quite hard to find - we spent couple of days
hunting the bug in BIND 9 and it turned to be problem in glibc.

Thanks,
Ondrej
