It is not a memory corruption. r0 is "argument 1/scratch register/result" and
the code in question in my example is (__thr_rwlock_rdlock via disass /s use):

280 {
   0x20115d50 <+0>: push {r11, lr}
   0x20115d54 <+4>: mov r11, sp
   0x20115d58 <+8>: sub sp, sp, #32
   0x20115d5c <+12>: mov r12, r1
. . .
291 tm_p = &timeout;
292 tm_size = sizeof(timeout);
293 }
294 return (_umtx_op_err(rwlock, UMTX_OP_RW_RDLOCK, flags,
   0x20115d98 <+72>: str r1, [sp]
   0x20115d9c <+76>: mov r1, #12
   0x20115da0 <+80>: mov r2, r12
   0x20115da4 <+84>: bl 0x201167a0
=> 0x20115da8 <+88>: mov sp, r11
   0x20115dac <+92>: pop {r11, pc}

After the "bl 0x201167a0" the value of r0 is the return
value from 0x201167a0, not the first argument value
for 0x20115d50 . A better reporting would indicate that
rwlock was <optimized out>  at  that point: locally
the value has not been preserved at that point because
there is no more use of the value.

But such is the kind of thing I expect to run into for
the likes of -O2 use with debug information.

Anyway, _umtx_op_err returned the 0x4 value that is shown
for rwlock .
