x86-64: Add time to vDSO
The only fast implementation of time(2) we expose is through the vsyscall page and we want to get userspace to stop using the vsyscall page. So make it available through the vDSO as well. This is essentially a cut-n-paste job. Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@mit.edu> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: "David S.
