[PATCH v3] arm64,ia64,ppc,s390,sh,tile,um,x86,mm: Remove default gate area

From: Andy Lutomirski
Date: Sun Jul 13 2014 - 16:02:16 EST


The core mm code will provide a default gate area based on
FIXADDR_USER_START and FIXADDR_USER_END if
!defined(__HAVE_ARCH_GATE_AREA) && defined(AT_SYSINFO_EHDR).

This default is only useful for ia64. arm64, ppc, s390, sh, tile,
64-bit UML, and x86_32 have their own code just to disable it. arm,
32-bit UML, and x86_64 have gate areas, but they have their own
implementations.

This gets rid of the default and moves the code into ia64.

This should save some code on architectures without a gate area: it's
now possible to inline the gate_area functions in the default case.

It would be nice to get this into some tree that's in -next and that
people can base on.

Changes from v1 and v2: Nothing except Will Deacon's ack and splitting
this out from the larger series.
