Subject: arm64: vdso: update wtm fields for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE
From: Nathan Lynch <nathan_lynch@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit d4022a335271a48cce49df35d825897914fbffe3 upstream.
Update wall-to-monotonic fields in the VDSO data page
unconditionally. These are used to service CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE,
which is not guarded by use_syscall.
