MIPS: Disable VDSO time functionality on microMIPS
A check we're about to add to pick up on function calls that depend on bogus use of the GOT in the VDSO picked up on instances of such function calls in microMIPS builds. Since the code appears genuinely problematic, and given the relatively small amount of use & testing that microMIPS sees, go ahead & disable the VDSO for microMIPS builds.
