lib/vdso: Mark do_hres() and do_coarse() as __always_inline

Performance numbers for Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6300U CPU @ 2.40GHz
(more clock_gettime() cycles - the better):

clock | before | after | diff
----------------------------------------------------------
monotonic | 153222105 | 166775025 | 8.8%
monotonic-coarse | 671557054 | 691513017 | 3.0%
monotonic-raw | 147116067 | 161057395 | 9.5%
boottime | 153446224 | 166962668 | 9.1%

The improvement for arm64 for monotonic and boottime is around 3.5%.

clock | before | after | diff
==================================================
monotonic 17326692 17951770 3.6%
monotonic-coarse 43624027 44215292 1.3%
monotonic-raw 17541809 17554932 0.1%
boottime 17334982 17954361 3.5%
