[S390] vdso: use ntp adjusted clock multiplier

Browse Source 
Commit "timekeeping: Fix clock_gettime vsyscall time warp" (0696b711e)
introduced the new parameter "mult" to update_vsyscall(). This parameter
contains the internal NTP adjusted clock multiplier.

The s390x vdso did not use this adjusted multiplier.  Instead, it used
the constant clock multiplier for gettimeofday() and clock_gettime()
variants.  This may result in observable time warps as explained in
commit 0696b711e.

Make the NTP adjusted clock multiplier available to the s390x vdso
implementation and use it for time calculations.
