lib/vdso: Allow to add architecture-specific vdso data
The initial assumption that all VDSO related data can be completely generic
does not hold. S390 needs architecture specific storage to access the clock
steering information.
Add struct arch_vdso_data to the vdso data struct. For architectures which
do not need extra data this defaults to an empty struct. Architectures
which require it, enable CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_VDSO_DATA and provide their
specific struct in asm/vdso/data.h.

vdso: Fix clocksource.h macro detection
CONFIG_GENERIC_GETTIMEOFDAY is a sufficient condition to verify if an
architecture implements asm/vdso/clocksource.h or not. The current
implementation wrongly assumes that the same is true for the config
option CONFIG_ARCH_CLOCKSOURCE_DATA.
This results in a series of build errors on ia64/sparc/sparc64 like this:
In file included from ./include/linux/clocksource.h:31,
from ./include/linux/clockchips.h:14,
from ./include/linux/tick.h:8,

./include/vdso/clocksource.h:9:10: fatal error: asm/vdso/clocksource.h:

Fix the issue removing the unneeded config condition.

a
lib/vdso: Prepare for time namespace support
To support time namespaces in the vdso with a minimal impact on regular non
time namespace affected tasks, the namespace handling needs to be hidden in
a slow path.
The most obvious place is vdso_seq_begin(). If a task belongs to a time
namespace then the VVAR page which contains the system wide vdso data is
replaced with a namespace specific page which has the same layout as the
VVAR page. That page has vdso_data->seq set to 1 to enforce the slow path
and vdso_data->clock_mode set to VCLOCK_TIMENS to enforce the time
namespace handling path.
The extra check in the case that vdso_data->seq is odd, e.g. a concurrent
update of the vdso data is in progress, is not really affecting regular
tasks which are not part of a time namespace as the task is spin waiting
for the update to finish and vdso_data->seq to become even again.
If a time namespace task hits that code path, it invokes the corresponding
time getter function which retrieves the real VVAR page, reads host time
and then adds the offset for the requested clock which is stored in the
special VVAR page.
If VDSO time namespace support is disabled the whole magic is compiled out.
Initial testing shows that the disabled case is almost identical to the
host case which does not take the slow timens path. With the special timens
page installed the performance hit is constant time and in the range of
5-7%.
For the vdso functions which are not using the sequence count an
unconditional check for vdso_data->clock_mode is added which switches to
the real vdso when the clock_mode is VCLOCK_TIMENS.
[avagin: Make do_hres_timens() work with raw clocks too: choose vdso_data
pointer by CS_RAW offset.]
