arm64: vdso32: Remove unused vdso32-offsets.h

Commit 2d071968a405 ("arm64: compat: Remove 32-bit sigreturn code
from the vDSO") removed all VDSO_* symbols in the compat vDSO. As a
result, vdso32-offsets.h is now empty and therefore unused. Time to
remove it.

arm64: alternative: patch alternatives in the vDSO

Make it possible to use alternatives in the vDSO, so that better
implementations can be used if possible.

arm64/vdso: Add time namespace page

Allocate the time namespace page among VVAR pages. Provide
__arch_get_timens_vdso_data() helper for VDSO code to get the
code-relative position of VVARs on that special page.

If a task belongs to a time namespace then the VVAR page which contains
the system wide VDSO data is replaced with a namespace specific page
which has the same layout as the VVAR page. That page has vdso_data->seq
set to 1 to enforce the slow path and vdso_data->clock_mode set to
VCLOCK_TIMENS to enforce the time namespace handling path.

The extra check in the case that vdso_data->seq is odd, e.g. a concurrent
update of the VDSO data is in progress, is not really affecting regular
tasks which are not part of a time namespace as the task is spin waiting
for the update to finish and vdso_data->seq to become even again.

If a time namespace task hits that code path, it invokes the corresponding
time getter function which retrieves the real VVAR page, reads host time
and then adds the offset for the requested clock which is stored in the
special VVAR page.

The time-namespace page isn't allocated on !CONFIG_TIME_NAMESPACE, but
vma is the same size, which simplifies criu/vdso migration between
different kernel configs.

arm64: remove pointless __KERNEL__ guards

For a number of years, UAPI headers have been split from kernel-internal
headers. The latter are never exposed to userspace, and always built
with __KERNEL__ defined.

Most headers under arch/arm64 don't have __KERNEL__ guards, but there
are a few stragglers lying around. To make things more consistent, and
to set a good example going forward, let's remove these redundant
__KERNEL__ guards.

In a couple of cases, a trailing #endif lacked a comment describing its
corresponding #if or #ifdef, so these are fixes up at the same time.

Guards in auto-generated crypto code are left as-is, as these guards are
generated by scripting imported from the upstream openssl project
scripts. Guards in UAPI headers are left as-is, as these can be included
by userspace or the kernel.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

When the compat vDSO is enabled, the sigreturn trampolines are not
anymore available through [sigpage] but through [vdso].

Add the relevant code the enable the feature.

arm64: VDSO support

This patch adds VDSO support for 64-bit applications. The VDSO code is
currently used for sys_rt_sigreturn() and optimised gettimeofday()
(using the user-accessible generic counter).
