This patch adds clock_gettime_fallback() function that wraps assembly invocation of clock_gettime() syscall using __NR_clock_gettime. This function is used if pure VDSO implementation of clock_gettime() does not succeed for any reason. For example, it is called if the clkid parameter of clock_gettime() is not one of the clkids listed in the switch-case block of the function __vdso_clock_gettime() (one such case for clkid is CLOCK_BOOTIME). If syscall invocation via __NR_clock_gettime fails, register a3 will be set. So, after the syscall, register a3 is tested and the return value is negated if it's set. Signed-off-by:
