[PATCH 1/2] time/namespace: Refactor copy-pasted helper into one copy

From: Jann Horn
Date: Tue Nov 29 2022 - 14:20:02 EST


find_timens_vvar_page() is not arch-specific, as can be seen from how all
five per-architecture versions of it are the same.
(arm64, powerpc and riscv are exactly the same; x86 and s390 have two
characters difference inside a comment, less blank lines, and mark the
!CONFIG_TIME_NS version as inline.)

Refactor the five copies into a central copy in kernel/time/namespace.c.

Marked for stable backporting because it is a prerequisite for the
following patch.
