These pointers are only modified once in vdso_setup_data_pages(),
during the init phase. Make them read-only after that.
Drop __refdata as that would conflict with __ro_after_init.
Modpost does accept the reference from a __ro_after_init symbol to
an __init one.

As a preparation of the untangling of time namespaces and the vDSO, move
the glue functions between those subsystems into a new file.
While at it, switch the mutex lock and mmap_read_lock() in the vDSO
namespace code to guard().

Allocating the data pages as part of the kernel image does not work on
SPARC. The MMU will raise a fault when userspace tries to access them.
Allocate the data pages through the page allocator instead.
Unused pages in the vDSO VMA are still allocated to keep the virtual
addresses aligned. Switch the mapping from PFNs to 'struct page' as that is
required for dynamically allocated pages. This also aligns the allocation
of the datapages with the code pages and is a prerequisite for mlockall()
support.
VM_MIXEDMAP is necessary for the call to vmf_insert_page() in the timens
prefault path to work.
The data pages need to be order-0, non-compound pages so that the mapping
to userspace and the different orderings work.
These pages are also used by the timekeeping, random pool and architecture
initialization code. Some of these are running before the page allocator is
available. To keep these subsytems working without changes, introduce
early, statically data storage which will then replaced by the real one as
soon as that is available.

This header is unnecessary and together with some upcoming changes would

When the generic vDSO does not provide time functions, as for example on
riscv32, then the time data store is not necessary.
Avoid allocating these time data pages when not used.

With the introduction of the generic vdso data storage the VM_SEALED_SYSMAP
vm flag must be moved from the architecture specific
_install_special_mapping() call [1] [2] which maps the vvar mapping to
generic code.

To support multiple PTP clocks, the VDSO data structure needs to be
reworked. All clock specific data will end up in struct vdso_clock and in
struct vdso_time_data there will be an array of VDSO clocks.
Now that all preparatory changes are in place:
Split the clock related struct members into a separate struct
vdso_clock. Make sure all users are aware, that vdso_time_data is no longer
initialized as an array and vdso_clock is now the array inside
vdso_data. Remove the vdso_clock define, which mapped it to vdso_time_data
for the transition.

To support multiple PTP clocks, the VDSO data structure needs to be
reworked. All clock specific data will end up in struct vdso_clock and in
struct vdso_time_data there will be array of VDSO clocks. At the moment,
vdso_clock is simply a define which maps vdso_clock to vdso_time_data.
For time namespaces, vdso_time_data needs to be set up. But only the clock
related part of the vdso_data thats requires this setup. To reflect the
future struct vdso_clock, rename timens_setup_vdso_data() to
timns_setup_vdso_clock_data().
No functional change.

Some architectures need to expose architecture-specific data to the vDSO.
Enable the generic vDSO storage mechanism to both store and map this
data. Some architectures require more than a single page, like LoongArch,
so prepare for that usecase, too.

Extend the generic vDSO data storage with a page for the random state data.
The random state data is stored in a dedicated page, as the existing
storage page is only meant for time-related, time-namespace-aware data.
This simplifies to access logic to not need to handle time namespaces
anymore and also frees up more space in the time-related page.
In case further generic vDSO data store is required it can be added to
the random state page.

Historically each architecture defined their own way to store the vDSO
data page. Add a generic mechanism to provide storage for that page.
Furthermore this generic storage will be extended to also provide
uniform storage for *non*-time-related data, like the random state or
architecture-specific data. These will have their own pages and data
structures, so rename 'vdso_data' into 'vdso_time_data' to make that
split clear from the name.
Also introduce a new consistent naming scheme for the symbols related to
the vDSO, which makes it clear if the symbol is accessible from
userspace or kernel space and the type of data behind the symbol.
The generic fault handler contains an optimization to prefault the vvar
page when the timens page is accessed. This was lifted from s390 and x86.
