Remove vDSO from Makefile to move the to selftests. Update vDSO Makefile
to work under selftests. vDSO will not be run as part of selftests suite
and will not be included in install targets. They can be built separately
for now.

<title>Documentation/vDSO: don't build tests when cross compiling</title>

The following was seen in linux-next build coverage, which is somewhat
unique since it uses powerpc host to cross compile x86:

Documentation/vDSO/vdso_standalone_test_x86.c:49:2: error: impossible
register constraint in 'asm'
make[4]: *** [Documentation/vDSO/vdso_standalone_test_x86.o] Error 1

It probably makes sense to just skip building these tests when
we are cross compiling.

<title>vdso: don't require 64-bit math in standalone test</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1679689231b52e2f8700dcb8bbcaf60367e1fc1a</id>
<content type='text'>
The use of 64-bit math on i386 causes build failures:
vdso_standalone_test_x86.c:(.text+0x101): undefined reference to `__umoddi3'
vdso_standalone_test_x86.c:(.text+0x12d): undefined reference to `__udivdi3'

Commit adb19fb66ee (Documentation: add makefiles for more targets) is
now building this by default, so it's failing the kernel build entirely.

Switching the declaration from uint64_t to time_t does the right thing
and handles the x32 case automatically.

vdso_standalone_test_x86 needs -lgcc_s to build succesfully on 32bit.

glibc versions older than 2.16 don't include sys/auxv.h which this
executable uses.
Since we don't have a good way to test for specific glibc versions in
kbuild, just disable it for now.

This adds a new vdso_test.c that's written entirely in C.  It also
makes all of the vDSO examples work on 32-bit x86.

This thing is hopelessly x86_64-specific: it's an example of how to
access the vDSO without any runtime support at all.
