All callers of arch_vma_name() also get the name via vm_ops, which for
these VMAs will use the name from 'struct vma_special_mapping'.
Therefore the custom implementation is unnecessary and can be removed in
favor of the default implementation from kernel/signal.c.

The time-related VDSO functionality was introduced in 2021 in
commit 87f3248cdb9a ("csky: Reconstruct VDSO framework") and
commit 0d3b051adbb7 ("csky: Add VDSO with GENERIC_GETTIMEOFDAY, GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL, HAVE_GENERIC_VDSO").

However the corresponding aux-vector entry AT_SYSINFO_EHDR was never
wired up, making these functions impossible to test or use.

The VDSO itself is kept as it also provides rt_sigreturn which is
exposed differently to userspace.

<title>mm: remove legacy install_special_mapping() code</title>

<id>497258dfafcc6b88e7c4c46a38a479721d44cf41</id>
<content type='text'>
All relevant architectures had already been converted to the new interface
(which just has an underscore in front of the name - not very imaginative
naming), this just force-converts the stragglers.

The modern interface is almost identical to the old one, except instead of
the page pointer it takes a "struct vm_special_mapping" that describes the
mapping (and contains the page pointer as one member), and it returns the
resulting 'vma' instead of just the error code.

Getting rid of the old interface also gets rid of some special casing,
which had caused problems with the mremap extensions to "struct
vm_special_mapping".
