Remove the usage of the vvar _vdso_rng_data from the kernel-space code,
as the x86 vvar machinery is about to be removed.
The definition of the structure is unnecessary, as the data lives in a
page pre-allocated by the linker anyways.
The vdso user-space access to the rng data will be switched soon.
DEFINE_VVAR_SINGLE() is now unused. It will be removed later togehter
with the rest of vvar.h.

_vdso_data is specific to x86 and __arch_get_k_vdso_data() is provided
so that all architectures can provide the requested pointer.
Do the same with _vdso_rng_data, provide __arch_get_k_vdso_rng_data()
and don't use x86 _vdso_rng_data directly.
Until now vdso/vsyscall.h was only included by time/vsyscall.c but now
it will also be included in char/random.c, leading to a duplicate
declaration of _vdso_data and _vdso_rng_data.
To fix this issue, move the declaration in a C file. vma.c looks like
the most appropriate candidate. We don't need to replace the definitions
in vsyscall.h by declarations as declarations are already in asm/vvar.h.

Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:
"This adds getrandom() support to the vDSO.
First, it adds a new kind of mapping to mmap(2), MAP_DROPPABLE, which
lets the kernel zero out pages anytime under memory pressure, which
enables allocating memory that never gets swapped to disk but also
doesn't count as being mlocked.
Then, the vDSO implementation of getrandom() is introduced in a
generic manner and hooked into random.c.
Next, this is implemented on x86. (Also, though it's not ready for
this pull, somebody has begun an arm64 implementation already)
Finally, two vDSO selftests are added.
There are also two housekeeping cleanup commits"

MAINTAINERS: add random.h headers to RNG subsection
random: note that RNDGETPOOL was removed in 2.6.9-rc2
selftests/vDSO: add tests for vgetrandom
x86: vdso: Wire up getrandom() vDSO implementation
random: introduce generic vDSO getrandom() implementation
mm: add MAP_DROPPABLE for designating always lazily freeable mappings
Hook up the generic vDSO implementation to the x86 vDSO data page. Since
the existing vDSO infrastructure is heavily based on the timekeeping
functionality, which works over arrays of bases, a new macro is
introduced for vvars that are not arrays.
The vDSO function requires a ChaCha20 implementation that does not write
to the stack, yet can still do an entire ChaCha20 permutation, so
provide this using SSE2, since this is userland code that must work on
all x86-64 processors.

All architectures which use the generic VDSO code have their own storage
for the VDSO clock mode. That's pointless and just requires duplicate code.
X86 abuses the function which retrieves the architecture specific clock
mode storage to mark the clocksource as used in the VDSO. That's silly
because this is invoked on every tick when the VDSO data is updated.
Move this functionality to the clocksource::enable() callback so it gets
invoked once when the clocksource is installed. This allows to make the
clock mode storage generic.
