[PATCH 5.6 154/194] powerpc/vdso32: Fallback on getres syscall when clock is unknown

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

From: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit e963b7a28b2bf2416304e1a15df967fcf662aff5 upstream.

There are other clocks than the standard ones, for instance
per process clocks. Therefore, being above the last standard clock
doesn't mean it is a bad clock. So, fallback to syscall instead
of returning -EINVAL inconditionaly.
