[PATCH] x86_64: Support alternative() in vsyscalls
The real vsyscall .text addresses are not mapped when the alternative() replacement runs early, so use some black magic to access them using the direct mapping. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
