syscall instruction in fallback code is missing "rcx" and "r11" clobbers.
It doesn't seem to cause any problems because the C code looks like:
if (do_hres(&vd[CS_HRES_COARSE], CLOCK_REALTIME, &ts))
return gettimeofday_fallback(tv, tz);
and assembly looks like
__vdso_gettimeofday:
0: lea r9, [rip]
7: test rdi,rdi
a: je b7
10: mov r8d, [r9]
13: test r8b, 1
17: jne bf
1d: cmp [rip], 1
24: jne c6
2a: rdtsc
c6: mov eax, 96
cb: syscall
====> cd: ret <====
rcx and r11 are caller-saved and nothing seems to use those registers
after syscall and before returning from vDSO.
