x86/vdso: Move cycle_last handling into the caller

KAGA-KOKO · KAGA-KOKO · commit 3e89bf35ebf5 · 2018-10-04T23:00:27.000+02:00
Dereferencing gtod->cycle_last all over the place and foing the cycles < last comparison in the vclock read functions generates horrible code. Doing it at the call site is much better and gains a few cycles both for TSC and pvclock. Caveat: This adds the comparison to the hyperv vclock as well, but I have no way to test that.
