(cherry pick from url https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10044497/) Take an effort to recode the arm64 vdso code from assembler to C previously submitted by Andrew Pinski <apinski@cavium.com>, rework it for use in both arm and arm64, overlapping any optimizations for each architecture. But instead of landing it in arm64, land the result into lib/vdso and unify both implementations to simplify future maintenance. Declare arch/arm/vdso/vgettimeofday.c to be a candidate for a global implementation of the vdso timer calls. The hope is that new architectures can take advantage of the current unification of arm and arm64 implementations. We urge future efforts to merge their implementations into the global vgettimeofday.c file and thus provide functional parity.
