This patch adds support for using the implementations of gettimeofday()
and clock_gettime() provided by the kernel in the VDSO. The VDSO will
always provide clock_gettime() as CLOCK_{REALTIME,MONOTONIC}_COARSE can
be implemented regardless of platform. CLOCK_{REALTIME,MONOTONIC}, along
with gettimeofday(), are only implemented on platforms which make use of
either the CP0 count or GIC as their clocksource. On other platforms,
the VDSO does not provide the __vdso_gettimeofday symbol, as it is
never useful.
The VDSO functions return ENOSYS when they encounter an unsupported
request, in which case glibc should fall back to the standard syscall.
Tested with upstream kernel 4.5 and QEMU emulating Malta.

I've moved the MIPS port from ports to the main sysdeps hierarchy.
Beyond the README update, the move of the files was simply
git mv ports/sysdeps/mips sysdeps/mips
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/mips sysdeps/unix/mips
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips
and in addition to the ChangeLog entries here, I put a note at the top
of ports/ChangeLog.mips similar to those in other files.
Tested that disassembly of installed shared libraries for mips is the
same before and after this patch (except for ld.so where paths in
assertions are involved, as for arm).
