[PATCH v3 1/3] vdso: allow to add architecture-specific vdso data

From: Sven Schnelle
Date: Tue Aug 04 2020 - 11:03:07 EST


Add the possibility to add architecture specific vDSO
data to struct vdso_data. This is useful if the arch specific
user space VDSO code needs additional data during execution.
If CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_VDSO_DATA is defined, the generic code will
include asm/vdso/data.h which should contain 'struct arch_vdso_data'.
This structure will be embedded in the generic vDSO data.
