FROMLIST: [PATCH v5 01/12] arm: vdso: rename vdso_datapage variables

(cherry picked from url https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10044505/

)

Take an effort to recode the arm64 vdso code from assembler to C
previously submitted by Andrew Pinski <apinski@cavium.com>, rework
it for use in both arm and arm64, overlapping any optimizations
for each architecture. But instead of landing it in arm64, land the
result into lib/vdso and unify both implementations to simplify
future maintenance.

Rename seq_count to tb_seq_count. Rename tk_is_cntvct to use_syscall.
Rename cs_mult to cs_mono_mult. All to align with the variables in the
arm64 vdso datapage. Rework vdso_read_begin() and vdso_read_retry()
functions to reflect modern access patterns for tb_seq_count field.

Update copyright message to reflect the start of the contributions in
this series.
