Vincenzo Frascino 50a2610ade lib: vdso: Remove CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT_VDSO
arm64 was the last architecture using CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT_VDSO config
option. With this patch series the dependency in the architecture has
been removed.

Remove CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT_VDSO from the Unified vDSO library code.

Vincenzo Frascino 00b26474c2 lib/vdso: Provide generic VDSO implementation
In the last few years the kernel gained quite some architecture specific
vdso implementations which contain very similar code.

Introduce a generic VDSO implementation of gettimeofday() which will be
shareable between architectures once they are converted over.

The implementation is based on the current x86 VDSO code.
