Nathan Lynch 8512287a81 ARM: 8330/1: add VDSO user-space code
Place VDSO-related user-space code in arch/arm/kernel/vdso/.

It is almost completely written in C with some assembly helpers to
load the data page address, sample the counter, and fall back to
system calls when necessary.

The VDSO can service gettimeofday and clock_gettime when
CONFIG_ARM_ARCH_TIMER is enabled and the architected timer is present
(and correctly configured).  It reads the CP15-based virtual counter
to compute high-resolution timestamps.

Of particular note is that a post-processing step ("vdsomunge") is
necessary to produce a shared object which is architecturally allowed
to be used by both soft- and hard-float EABI programs.

The 2012 edition of the ARM ABI defines Tag_ABI_VFP_args = 3 "Code is
compatible with both the base and VFP variants; the user did not
permit non-variadic functions to pass FP parameters/results."
Unfortunately current toolchains do not support this tag, which is
ideally what we would use.

The best available option is to ensure that both EF_ARM_ABI_FLOAT_SOFT
and EF_ARM_ABI_FLOAT_HARD are unset in the ELF header's e_flags,
indicating that the shared object is "old" and should be accepted for
backward compatibility's sake.  While binutils < 2.24 appear to
produce a vdso.so with both flags clear, 2.24 always sets
EF_ARM_ABI_FLOAT_SOFT, with no way to inhibit this behavior.  So we
have to fix things up with a custom post-processing step.

In fact, the VDSO code in glibc does much less validation (including
checking these flags) than the code for handling conventional
file-backed shared libraries, so this is a bit moot unless glibc's
VDSO code becomes more strict.

* vdsomunge - Host program which produces a shared object
* architecturally specified to be usable by both soft- and hard-float
* programs.
*
* The Procedure Call Standard for the ARM Architecture (ARM IHI
* 0042E) says:
*
* 6.4.1 VFP and Base Standard Compatibility
*
* Code compiled for the VFP calling standard is compatible with
* the base standard (and vice-versa) if no floating-point or
* containerized vector arguments or results are used.
*
* And ELF for the ARM Architecture (ARM IHI 0044E) (Table 4-2) says:
*
* If both EF_ARM_ABI_FLOAT_XXXX bits are clear, conformance to the
* base procedure-call standard is implied.
*
* The VDSO is built with -msoft-float, as with the rest of the ARM
* kernel, and uses no floating point arguments or results. The build
* process will produce a shared object that may or may not have the
* EF_ARM_ABI_FLOAT_SOFT flag set (it seems to depend on the binutils
* version; binutils starting with 2.24 appears to set it). The
* EF_ARM_ABI_FLOAT_HARD flag should definitely not be set, and this
* program will error out if it is.
*
* If the soft-float flag is set, this program clears it. That's all
* it does.
