More information on this __tls_get_addr should not be called except
inside a shared library.  Do you know where these calls to
__tls_get_addr are coming from?

x86_64 is able to get at a TLS without calling __tls_get_addr in a
normal executable so without extra information of where this function
is being called, it is hard to figure out what is going on.
