(cherry pick from url https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/
10053549/)
Add time() vdso support to match up with existing support in the x86's
vdso. Currently benefitting arm and arm64 which uses the common
vgettimeofday.c implementation. On arm provides about a ~14 fold
improvement in speed over the straight syscall, and about a ~5 fold
improvement in speed over an alternate library implementation that
relies on the vdso call to gettimeofday to fulfill the request.
We can provide __vdso_time even if we can not provide a speed
enhanced __vdso_gettimeofday.
