Pull vdso timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "A series of commits to deal with the regression caused by the generic VDSO implementation. The usage of clock_gettime64() for 32bit compat fallback syscalls caused seccomp filters to kill innocent processes because they only allow clock_gettime(). Handle the compat syscalls with clock_gettime() as before, which is not a functional problem for the VDSO as the legacy compat application interface is not y2038 safe anyway. It's just extra fallback code which needs to be implemented on every architecture. It's opt in for now so that it does not break the compile of already converted architectures in linux-next. Once these are fixed, the #ifdeffery goes away. So much for trying to be smart and reuse code..." * 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: arm64: compat: vdso: Use legacy syscalls as fallback x86/vdso/32: Use 32bit syscall fallback lib/vdso/32: Provide legacy syscall fallbacks lib/vdso: Move fallback invocation to the callers lib/vdso/32: Remove inconsistent NULL pointer checks
