[PATCH v2 05/16] libstdc++: Fix race condition in new atomic notify code

When using a proxy object for atomic waiting and notifying operations,
we need to ensure that the _M_ver value is always incremented by a
notifying operation, even if we return early without doing the futex
wake syscall. Otherwise we get missed wake-ups because the notifying
thread doesn't modify the value that other threads are doing a futex
wait on.
libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:
* include/bits/atomic_wait.h (__notify_impl): Increment the
proxy value before returning early for the uncontended case.
