This patch uses the libc_ifunc_hidden macro to create already existing ifunc functions
time and gettimeofday on intel. This way, the libc_hidden_def macro can be used
instead of the libc_ifunc_hidden_def one which was only used here. Thus the
macro is removed from libc-symbols.h.
On i386, the __GI_* symbols do not target the ifunc symbol and thus the
redirection construct has to be applied here.
ChangeLog:
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86/gettimeofday.c (__gettimeofday):
Use libc_ifunc_hidden macro. Use libc_hidden_def instead of
libc_ifunc_hidden_def.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86/time.c (time): Likewise.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/gettimeofday.c (__gettimeofday):
Redirect ifunced function in header for using it as type of ifunc'ed
function. Redefine libc_hidden_def to use fallback non ifunc'ed
function for __GI_* symbol.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/time.c (time): Likewise.
* include/libc-symbols.h
(libc_ifunc_hidden_def, libc_ifunc_hidden_def1): Delete macro.

This patch removes the vsyscall usage for x86_64 port. As indicated
by kernel code comments [1], vsyscalls are a legacy ABI and its concept
is problematic:
- It interferes with ASLR.
- It's awkward to write code that lives in kernel addresses but is
callable by userspace at fixed addresses.
- The whole concept is impossible for 32-bit compat userspace.
- UML cannot easily virtualize a vsyscall.
The VDSO is a better approach for such functionality. Tested on i686,
x86_64, and x32.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/gettimeofday.c
(__gettimeofday_syscall): Remove vsyscall fallback.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/time.c (__time_syscall): Likewise.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86/gettimeofday.c (__gettimeofday_syscall):
Add syscall fallback function.
(gettimeofday_ifunc): Use __gettimeofday_syscall as fallback mechanism
if vDSO is not present.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86/time.c (__time_syscall): Add syscall
fallback function.
(time_ifunc): Use __time_syscall as fallback mechanism if vDSO is not
present.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/gettimeofday.c: Remove file.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/time.c: Likewise.

Linux 3.15 adds support for clock_gettime, gettimeofday, and time vDSO
(commit id 37c975545ec63320789962bf307f000f08fabd48). This patch adds
GLIBC supports to use such symbol when they are avaiable.
Along with x86 vDSO support, this patch cleanup x86_64 code by moving
all common code to x86 common folder. Only init-first.c is different
between implementations.
