Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/vdso: Provide clock_getres_time64()

For consistency with __vdso_clock_gettime64() there should also be a
64-bit variant of clock_getres(). This will allow the extension of
CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME to the vDSO and finally the removal of 32-bit
time types from the kernel and UAPI.

Signed-off-by: Thomas Weißschuh <thomas.weissschuh@...utronix.de>

Based on tip/timers/vdso.

This was missed in the original vdso_getres_time64() series as powerpc
does not use include/vdso/gettime.h.
