Historically each architecture defined their own datapage to store the

We plan to introduce a generic framework for the management of the VDSO
data storage that can be used by all architectures and which works
together with the existing generic VDSO code.
Before that is possible align the different architectures by
standardizing on the existing generic infrastructure and moving things
out of the VDSO data page which does not belong there.
Patches 1- 2: csky
Patch 3: s390
Patches 4- 5: arm64
Patch 6: riscv
Patch 7: arm
Patch 8: LoongArch
Patch 9: MIPS
Patches 10-20: x86
Patches 21-27: powerpc
Patch 28: Renamings to avoid a name clash with the new code.
As this has been sitting for two weeks now without major comments, I'm
planning to merge that through the tip tree tomorrow.
To avoid any future conflicts with powerpc tree, I suggest you merge
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux.git
topic/vdso into your tree before applying this series.
