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.
