arm64: vdso: Work around invalid absolute relocations from GCC

All vDSO code needs to be completely position independent.  Symbol
references are marked as hidden so the compiler emits PC-relative
relocations.

However GCC emits absolute relocations for symbol-relative references with
an offset >= 64KiB. After recent refactorings in the vDSO code this is the
case in __arch_get_vdso_u_timens_data() with a page size of 64KiB.

Work around the issue by preventing the optimizer from seeing the offsets.

Fixes: 83a2a6b8cf ("vdso/gettimeofday: Prepare do_hres_timens() for introduction of struct vdso_clock")
