Subject: [PATCH] arm64: vdso: clean up vdso_pagelist initialization
Date: Tue, 11 Feb 2014 16:28:42 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1392157722-6372-1-git-send-email-nathan_lynch@mentor.com> (raw)

Remove some unnecessary bits that were apparently carried over from
another architecture's implementation:

- No need to get_page() the vdso text/data - these are part of the
  kernel image.
- No need for ClearPageReserved on the vdso text.
- No need to vmap the first text page to check the ELF header - this
  can be done through &vdso_start.

Also some minor cleanup:
- Use kcalloc for vdso_pagelist array allocation.
- Don't print on allocation failure, slab/slub will do that for us.
