[PATCH v7 2/7] powerpc/vdso: Remove __kernel_datapage_offset and simplify __get_datapage()

From: Christophe Leroy
Date: Mon Apr 20 2020 - 12:56:48 EST


The VDSO datapage and the text pages are always located immediately
next to each other, so it can be hardcoded without an indirection
through __kernel_datapage_offset

In order to ease things, move the data page in front like other
arches, that way there is no need to know the size of the library
to locate the data page.

Before:
clock-getres-realtime-coarse: vdso: 714 nsec/call
clock-gettime-realtime-coarse: vdso: 792 nsec/call
clock-gettime-realtime: vdso: 1243 nsec/call

After:
clock-getres-realtime-coarse: vdso: 699 nsec/call
clock-gettime-realtime-coarse: vdso: 784 nsec/call
clock-gettime-realtime: vdso: 1231 nsec/call

v7:
- Moved the removal of the tmp param of __get_datapage()
in a subsequent patch
- Included the addition of the offset param to __get_datapage()
in the further preparatory patch
