[PATCH v4 08/12] arm: vdso: Add ARCH_CLOCK_FIXED_MASK

Tue Oct 31 11:32:13 PDT 2017


Take an effort to recode the arm64 vdso code from assembler to C
previously submitted by Andrew Pinski <apinski at cavium.com>, rework
it for use in both arm and arm64, overlapping any optimizations
for each architecture. But instead of landing it in arm64, land the
result into lib/vdso and unify both implementations to simplify
future maintenance.

Add ARCH_CLOCK_FIXED_MASK as an efficiency since arm64 has no
purpose for cs_mask vdso_data variable.
