Pull VDSO updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Provide the missing 64-bit variant of clock_getres()

   This allows the extension of CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME to the vDSO and
   finally the removal of 32-bit time types from the kernel and UAPI.

 - Remove the useless and broken getcpu_cache from the VDSO

   The intention was to provide a trivial way to retrieve the CPU number
   from the VDSO, but as the VDSO data is per process there is no way to
   make it work.

 - Switch get/put_unaligned() from packed struct to memcpy()

   The packed struct violates strict aliasing rules which requires to
   pass -fno-strict-aliasing to the compiler. As this are scalar values
   __builtin_memcpy() turns them into simple loads and stores

 - Use __typeof_unqual__() for __unqual_scalar_typeof()

   The get/put_unaligned() changes triggered a new sparse warning when
   __beNN types are used with get/put_unaligned() as sparse builds add a
   special 'bitwise' attribute to them which prevents sparse to evaluate
   the Generic in __unqual_scalar_typeof().

   Newer sparse versions support __typeof_unqual__() which avoids the
   problem, but requires a recent sparse install. So this adds a sanity
   check to sparse builds, which validates that sparse is available and
   capable of handling it.

 - Force inline __cvdso_clock_getres_common()

   Compilers sometimes un-inline agressively, which results in function
   call overhead and problems with automatic stack variable
   initialization.

   Interestingly enough the force inlining results in smaller code than
   the un-inlined variant produced by GCC when optimizing for size.
