MIPS: VDSO: Add implementation of clock_gettime() fallback

This patch adds clock_gettime_fallback() function that wraps assembly
invocation of clock_gettime() syscall using __NR_clock_gettime.

This function is used if pure VDSO implementation of clock_gettime()
does not succeed for any reason. For example, it is called if the
clkid parameter of clock_gettime() is not one of the clkids listed
in the switch-case block of the function __vdso_clock_gettime()
(one such case for clkid is CLOCK_BOOTIME).

If syscall invocation via __NR_clock_gettime fails, register a3 will
be set. So, after the syscall, register a3 is tested and the return
value is negated if it's set.
