Martin Schwidefsky fc5243d98a [S390] arch_setup_additional_pages arguments
arch_setup_additional_pages currently gets two arguments, the binary
format descripton and an indication if the process uses an executable
stack or not. The second argument is not used by anybody, it could
be removed without replacement.

What actually does make sense is to pass an indication if the process
uses the elf interpreter or not. The glibc code will not use anything
from the vdso if the process does not use the dynamic linker, so for
statically linked binaries the architecture backend can choose not
to map the vdso.

Jan Beulich 369c99205f x86: fix two modpost warnings
Even though it's only the difference of the two __initdata symbols
that's being calculated, modpost still doesn't like this. So rather
calculate the size once in an __init function and store it for later
use.

Roland McGrath 7f3646aa16 x86 vDSO: use vdso-syms.lds
This patch changes the kernel's references to addresses in the vDSO image
to be based on the symbols defined by vdso-syms.lds instead of the old
vdso-syms.o symbols.  This is all wrapped up in a macro defined by the new
asm-x86/vdso.h header; that's the only place in the kernel source that has
to know the details of the scheme for getting vDSO symbol values.
