The call to __iter_div_u64_rem() in vdso_time_update_aux() is a wrapper
around subtraction. It cannot be used to divide large numbers, as that
introduces long, computationally expensive delays. A regular u64 division
is also not possible in the timekeeper update path as it can be too slow.
Instead of splitting the ktime_t offset into into second and subsecond
components during the timekeeper update fast-path, do it together with the
adjustment of tk->offs_aux in the slow-path. Equivalent to the handling of
offs_boot and monotonic_to_boot.
Reuse the storage of monotonic_to_boot for the new field, as it is not used
by auxiliary timekeepers.
