[RFC] arm64: Enforce gettimeofday vdso structure read ordering

Fri Aug 19 13:02:08 PDT 2016
Introduce explicit control-flow logic immediately prior to virtual
counter register read in all cases so that the mrs read will
always be accessed after all vdso data elements are read and
sequence count is verified. Ensure data elements under the
protection provided by the sequence counter are read only within
the protection logic loop. Read the virtual counter as soon as
possible after the data elements are confirmed correctly read,
rather than after several other operations which can affect time.
Reduce full barriers required in register read code in favor of
the lighter-weight one-way barrier supplied by a load-acquire
wherever possible.
