Tony Breeds 2c62214831 Fix discrepancy between VDSO based gettimeofday() and sys_gettimeofday().
On platforms that copy sys_tz into the vdso (currently only x86_64, soon to
include powerpc), it is possible for the vdso to get out of sync if a user
calls (admittedly unusual) settimeofday(NULL, ptr).

This patch adds a hook for architectures that set
CONFIG_GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL to ensure when sys_tz is updated they can also
updatee their copy in the vdso.
