Just copying the userspace vsyscall interface.

Both the userspace vsyscall interface and getnstimeofday
use it for realtime clock.
Monotonic clock adds the offset:
vdata->monotonic_time_snsec = tk->tkr_mono.xtime_nsec
+
((u64)tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_nsec
<< tk->tkr_mono.shift);

Just copying the userspace vsyscall interface.
Do you actually want to change the "s" and unify wall_time_snsec with
nsec_base?

Yep.
