Paul Mackerras 597bc5c00b powerpc: Improve resolution of VDSO clock_gettime
Currently the clock_gettime implementation in the VDSO produces a
result with microsecond resolution for the cases that are handled
without a system call, i.e. CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC.  The
nanoseconds field of the result is obtained by computing a
microseconds value and multiplying by 1000.

This changes the code in the VDSO to do the computation for
clock_gettime with nanosecond resolution.  That means that the
resolution of the result will ultimately depend on the timebase
frequency.

Because the timestamp in the VDSO datapage (stamp_xsec, the real time
corresponding to the timebase count in tb_orig_stamp) is in units of
2^-20 seconds, it doesn't have sufficient resolution for computing a
result with nanosecond resolution.  Therefore this adds a copy of
xtime to the VDSO datapage and updates it in update_gtod() along with
the other time-related fields.
