<title>tile: implement gettimeofday() via vDSO</title>

<id>4a556f4f56da3110b27e265b79f0e7582115445c</id>
<content type='text'>
This change creates the framework for vDSO calls, makes the existing
rt_sigreturn() mechanism use it, and adds a fast gettimeofday().
Now that we need to expose the vDSO address to userspace, we add
AT_SYSINFO_EHDR to the set of aux entries provided to userspace.
(You can disable any extra vDSO support by booting with vdso=0,
but the rt_sigreturn vDSO page will still be provided.)

Note that glibc has supported the tile vDSO since release 2.17.

<title>arch/tile: eliminate pt_regs trampolines for syscalls</title>

<content type='text'>
Using the new current_pt_regs() model, we can remove some trampolines
from assembly code and call directly to the C syscall implementations.
rt_sigreturn() and clone() still need some assembly wrapping, but no
longer are passed a pt_regs pointer.  sigaltstack() and the
tilepro-specific cmpxchg_badaddr() syscalls are now just straight C.

<title>compat: move compat_siginfo_t definition to asm/compat.h</title>

<id>751f409db6216ebd134a94f6dcd97779933a5106</id>
<content type='text'>
This is a preparatory patch for the introduction of NT_SIGINFO elf note.

Make the location of compat_siginfo_t uniform across eight architectures
which have it.  Now it can be pulled in by including asm/compat.h or
linux/compat.h.

Most of the copies are verbatim.  compat_uid[32]_t had to be replaced by
__compat_uid[32]_t.  compat_uptr_t had to be moved up before
compat_siginfo_t in asm/compat.h on a several architectures (tile already
had it moved up).  compat_sigval_t had to be relocated from linux/compat.h
to asm/compat.h.

Only 3 out of 63 do not.  Renamed the current variant to __set_current_blocked(),
added set_current_blocked() that will exclude unblockable signals, switched
open-coded instances to it.
