time: Only do nanosecond rounding on GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD systems

We only do rounding to the next nanosecond so we don't see minor
1ns inconsistencies in the vsyscall implementations. Since we're
changing the vsyscall implementations to avoid this, conditionalize
the rounding only to the GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD architectures.
