ada: Remove some explicit yields in tasking run-time
This patch removes three occurrences where tasking run-time
subprograms yielded control shortly before conditional calls to Sleep,
in order to avoid these calls more often. It was intended as an
optimization on systems where calls to Sleep are costly and in
particular VMS.
A problem was that two of the yields contained data races that were
reported by thread sanitizing tools on some platforms, and that's the
motivation for removing them.
gcc/ada/
* libgnarl/s-taenca.adb (Wait_For_Completion): Remove call to
Yield.
* libgnarl/s-tasren.adb (Timed_Selective_Wait, Wait_For_Call):
Remove calls to Yield.
