When kuser helpers are enabled the kernel maps the relative code at
a fixed address (0xffff0000). Making configurable the option to disable
them means that the kernel can remove this mapping and any access to
this memory area results in a sigfault.

Add a KUSER_HELPERS config option that can be used to disable the
mapping when it is turned off.

This option can be turned off if and only if the applications are
designed specifically for the platform and they do not make use of the
kuser helpers code.

For AArch32 tasks, we install a special "[vectors]" page that contains
the sigreturn trampolines and kuser helpers, which is mapped at a fixed
address specified by the kuser helpers ABI.

Having the sigreturn trampolines in the same page as the kuser helpers
makes it impossible to disable the kuser helpers independently.

Follow the Arm implementation, by moving the signal trampolines out of
the "[vectors]" page and into their own "[sigpage]".

<title>arm64: vdso: Fix clock_getres() for CLOCK_REALTIME</title>

<id>81fb8736dd81da3fe94f28968dac60f392ec6746</id>
<content type='text'>
clock_getres() in the vDSO library has to preserve the same behaviour
of posix_get_hrtimer_res().

In particular, posix_get_hrtimer_res() does:

    sec = 0;
    ns = hrtimer_resolution;

where 'hrtimer_resolution' depends on whether or not high resolution
timers are enabled, which is a runtime decision.

The vDSO incorrectly returns the constant CLOCK_REALTIME_RES. Fix this
by exposing 'hrtimer_resolution' in the vDSO datapage and returning that
instead.

vDSO VMA address is saved in mm_context for the purpose of using
restorer from vDSO page to return to userspace after signal handling.

In Checkpoint Restore in Userspace (CRIU) project we place vDSO VMA
on restore back to the place where it was on the dump.
With the exception for x86 (where there is API to map vDSO with
arch_prctl()), we move vDSO inherited from CRIU task to restoree
position by mremap().

CRIU does support arm64 architecture, but kernel doesn't update
context.vdso pointer after mremap(). Which results in translation
fault after signal handling on restored application:
https://github.com/xemul/criu/issues/288

Make vDSO code track the VMA address by supplying .mremap() fops
the same way it's done for x86 and arm32 by:
commit b059a453b1cf ("x86/vdso: Add mremap hook to vm_special_mapping")
commit 280e87e98c09 ("ARM: 8683/1: ARM32: Support mremap() for sigpage/vDSO").

Now that we fixed the sub-ns handling for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW,
remove the duplicitive tk-&gt;raw_time.tv_nsec, which can be
stored in tk-&gt;tkr_raw.xtime_nsec (similarly to how its handled
for monotonic time).

Now that we fixed the sub-ns handling for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW,
remove the duplicitive tk-&gt;raw_time.tv_nsec, which can be
stored in tk-&gt;tkr_raw.xtime_nsec (similarly to how its handled
for monotonic time).

<title>arm64/vdso: Fix nsec handling for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW</title>

Recently vDSO support for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW was added in
49eea433b326 ("arm64: Add support for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW in
clock_gettime() vDSO"). Noticing that the core timekeeping code
never set tkr_raw.xtime_nsec, the vDSO implementation didn't
bother exposing it via the data page and instead took the
unshifted tk-&gt;raw_time.tv_nsec value which was then immediately
shifted left in the vDSO code.

Unfortunately, by accellerating the MONOTONIC_RAW clockid, it
uncovered potential 1ns time inconsistencies caused by the
timekeeping core not handing sub-ns resolution.

Now that the core code has been fixed and is actually setting
tkr_raw.xtime_nsec, we need to take that into account in the
vDSO by adding it to the shifted raw_time value, in order to
fix the user-visible inconsistency. Rather than do that at each
use (and expand the data page in the process), instead perform
the shift/addition operation when populating the data page and
remove the shift from the vDSO code entirely.

[jstultz: minor whitespace tweak, tried to improve commit
 message to make it more clear this fixes a regression]
