c7a18100bd lib/vdso: Avoid highres update if clocksource is not VDSO capable
If the current clocksource is not VDSO capable there is no point in
updating the high resolution parts of the VDSO data.

Replace the architecture specific check with a check for a VDSO capable
clocksource and skip the update if there is none.

5e3c6a312a ARM/arm64: vdso: Use common vdso clock mode storage
Convert ARM/ARM64 to the generic VDSO clock mode storage. This needs to
happen in one go as they share the clocksource driver.

78560d4106 ARM: vdso: Remove unused function
The function is nowhere used. Aside of that this check should only cover
the high resolution parts of the VDSO which require a VDSO capable
clocksource and not the complete functionality as the name suggests. Will
be replaced with something more useful.

9a6b55ac4a lib/vdso: Make __arch_update_vdso_data() logic understandable
The function name suggests that this is a boolean checking whether the
architecture asks for an update of the VDSO data, but it works the other
way round. To spare further confusion invert the logic.

20e2fc4231 ARM: 8930/1: Add support for generic vDSO
The arm vDSO library requires some adaptations to take advantage of
the newly introduced generic vDSO library.

Introduce the following changes:
 - Modification vdso.c to be compliant with the common vdso datapage
 - Use of lib/vdso for gettimeofday
 - Implementation of elf note
