#6957 would need to be applied to v2.4.x.
Also, it makes the mistake of avoiding the NOINLINE macros. We have thread locals using the peculiar TLS_... macros because our coroutines can switch POSIX threads and basic thread_local usage could cause the compiler to optimize access to the variables such that a second access is assumed to be on the same thread as the first access. An explanation exists in thread_local.hpp.
So now thread_local.hpp is updated to have TLS_with_get_ref, to support noncopyable thread locals and returning them by reference.
