Thank you for reporting this, seems that the next that you posted is missing
some fixes for arm64.

Could you please try the tree below?

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git timers/vdso

Let us know if the functionality is restored. Otherwise the issue will require
further investigation.
