The concepts of VDSO and gcov-based profiling don't mix: the former
includes kernel-provided code running in userspace, the latter adds
instructions that modify counters in kernel data segments. On s390
this has not been a problem so far due to VDSO code being written in
all-assembler which is exempt from gcov-based profiling. This could
change in the future, so disable profiling excplicitly for VDSO code.

The CLOCK_* defines in asm-offsets.c are only used for the vdso code
however in the meantime they cause other trouble.
Just rename them to get permanently rid of this:

<title>[S390] vdso: use ntp adjusted clock multiplier</title>

Commit "timekeeping: Fix clock_gettime vsyscall time warp" (0696b711e)
introduced the new parameter "mult" to update_vsyscall(). This parameter
contains the internal NTP adjusted clock multiplier.

The s390x vdso did not use this adjusted multiplier.  Instead, it used
the constant clock multiplier for gettimeofday() and clock_gettime()
variants.  This may result in observable time warps as explained in
commit 0696b711e.

Make the NTP adjusted clock multiplier available to the s390x vdso
implementation and use it for time calculations.

ld-option is misnamed as it test options to gcc, not to ld.
Renamed it to reflect this.
