[PATCHv7 23/33] x86/vdso: Handle faults on timens page

From: Dmitry Safonov
Date: Thu Oct 10 2019 - 21:24:29 EST


If a task belongs to a time namespace then the VVAR page which contains
the system wide VDSO data is replaced with a namespace specific page
which has the same layout as the VVAR page.
