Okay, having discussed with Arnd what the current situation is, he
points out that he needs an additional patch to solve some further
build issues with the generic VDSO patches - caused by the Kconfig
changes in your first patch.
I'd rather that gets fixed up before I apply the patches, rather
than applying a set of patches and a fix on top.
Please re-spin with Arnd's Kconfig changes included.
Thanks.
