Description of problem:
In nptl/sysdeps/pthread/tst-timer.c there is no value set for
sigev2.sigev_value, yet that member is used by
nptl/sysdeps/pthread/timer_routines.c line 353:
       timer->event.sigev_notify_function (timer->event.sigev_value);
when executing testcase rt/tst-timer .

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
glibc-2.3.2-27.9.3.i686.rpm

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run testcase build-i686-linuxnptl/rt/tst-timer .
2.
3.
    

Actual Results:  sigev2.sigev_value is used but was never initialized.
