time: Only do nanosecond rounding on GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD systems
We only do rounding to the next nanosecond so we don't see minor 1ns inconsistencies in the vsyscall implementations. Since we're changing the vsyscall implementations to avoid this, conditionalize the rounding only to the GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD architectures.
