John Stultz 576094b7f0 time: Introduce new GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL
Now that we moved everyone over to GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD,
introduce the new declaration and config option for the new
update_vsyscall method.

This option enables a tickless system: timer interrupts will
only trigger on an as-needed basis both when the system is
busy and when the system is idle.

This option enables high resolution timer support. If your
hardware is not capable then this option only increases
the size of the kernel image.
