The generic vDSO provides a lot common functionality shared between
different architectures. SPARC is the last architecture not using it,
preventing some necessary code cleanup.
Make use of the generic infrastructure.
Follow-up to and replacement for Arnd's SPARC vDSO removal patches:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250707144726.4008707-1-arn...
Only tested on QEMU.
Based von v6.16-rc1.
Marked as RFC for testing and review only.
Will be properly resubmitted after v6.17-rc1.
