+Subject: [PATCH] fluent-bit-shared: Link with -lpthread
+
+This fixes a reference to pthread_atfork in libfluent-bit.so
+otherwise we get undefined reference to the symbols in binaries
+which are linked with libfluent-bit.so
+
+Fixes errors like
+arm-bec-linux-gnueabi-ld: ../../bin/hello_world: hidden symbol `pthread_atfork' in /mnt/a/oe/build/tmp/work/cortexa7t2hf-neon-vfpv4-bec-linux-gnueabi/fluentbit/0.12.1-r0/recipe-sysroot/usr/lib/libpthread_nonshared.a(pthread_atfork.oS) is referenced by DSO
