Looking good. I have no remaining nits on this patchset; it looks good
to me.

A review from Michael would be nice though (in addition to the necessary
"Ack" I need to commit this to my tree), because there are a lot of PPC
particulars that I don't know enough about to review properly. For
example, you use -ffixed-r30 on PPC64. I'm sure there's a good reason
for this, but I don't know enough to assess it. And cvdso_call I have no
idea what's going on. Etc.

But anyway, awesome work, and I look forward to the final stretches.

Jason
