arm64: vdso: Use __arch_counter_get_cntvct()

While reading how `cntvct_el0` was read in the kernel, I found that
__arch_get_hw_counter() is doing something very similar to what
__arch_counter_get_cntvct() is already doing.

Use the existing __arch_counter_get_cntvct() function instead of
duplicating similar inline assembly code in __arch_get_hw_counter().

Both functions were performing nearly identical operations to read the
cntvct_el0 register. The only difference was that
__arch_get_hw_counter() included a memory clobber in its inline
assembly, which appears unnecessary in this context.

This change simplifies the code by eliminating duplicate functionality
and improves maintainability by centralizing the counter access logic in
a single implementation.
