To support multiple PTP clocks, the VDSO data structure needs to be
reworked. All clock specific data will end up in struct vdso_clock and in
struct vdso_time_data there will be array of VDSO clocks. At the moment,
vdso_clock is simply a define which maps vdso_clock to vdso_time_data.
To prepare for the rework of the data structures, replace the struct
vdso_time_data pointer with a struct vdso_clock pointer where applicable.

Multiple PTP clocks, which are independent of timekeeping, are required for
systems, which utilize PTP for synchronizing e.g. automation systems
independent of clock TAI.
PTP clocks are slow to access, but applications require fast access to the
relevant time similar to the regular timekeeping relevant clocks.
To prepare for that the VDSO data representation must be reworked. For
transition to the new structure of the vdso, add a define which maps
vdso_clock to vdso_data. This will be removed when all users are updated
step by step.

vdso_time_data is not cacheline aligned at the moment. When instantiating
an array, the start of the second array member is not cache line aligned.
This increases the number of the required cache lines which needs to be
read when handling e.g. CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW, because the data spawns an
extra cache line if the previous data does not end at a cache line
boundary.
Therefore make struct vdso_time_data cacheline aligned.

Extend the generic vDSO data storage with a page for the random state data.
The random state data is stored in a dedicated page, as the existing
storage page is only meant for time-related, time-namespace-aware data.
This simplifies to access logic to not need to handle time namespaces
anymore and also frees up more space in the time-related page.
In case further generic vDSO data store is required it can be added to
the random state page.

Historically each architecture defined their own way to store the vDSO
data page. Add a generic mechanism to provide storage for that page.
Furthermore this generic storage will be extended to also provide
uniform storage for *non*-time-related data, like the random state or
architecture-specific data. These will have their own pages and data
structures, so rename 'vdso_data' into 'vdso_time_data' to make that
split clear from the name.
Also introduce a new consistent naming scheme for the symbols related to
the vDSO, which makes it clear if the symbol is accessible from
userspace or kernel space and the type of data behind the symbol.
The generic fault handler contains an optimization to prefault the vvar
page when the timens page is accessed. This was lifted from s390 and x86.

However the generic datastore will introduce such a local source file.

The vDSO implementation can only include headers from the vdso/
namespace. To enable the usage of the ALIGN() macro from the vDSO, move
linux/align.h to vdso/align.h wholly.
As the only dependency linux/const.h is only a wrapper around
vdso/const.h anyways adapt that dependency.
Also provide a compatibility wrapper linux/align.h.
