[PATCH] lib/vdso: Make clock_getres() POSIX compliant again

[PATCH] lib/vdso: Make clock_getres() POSIX compliant again

[Thomas Gleixner]

A recent commit removed the NULL pointer check from the clock_getres()
implementation causing a test case to fault.

POSIX requires an explicit NULL pointer check for clock_getres() aside of
the validity check of the clock_id argument for obscure reasons.

Add it back for both 32bit and 64bit.

Note, this is only a partial revert of the offending commit which does not
bring back the broken fallback invocation in the the 32bit compat
implementations of clock_getres() and clock_gettime().
