Hi Kaixiong,

When CONFIG_SUPERH and CONFIG_VSYSCALL are defined,
vdso_enabled belongs to arch/sh/kernel/vsyscall/vsyscall.c.
So, move it into its own file. After this patch is applied,
all sysctls of vm_table would be moved. So, delete vm_table.

Thanks for your patch!

I gave this a try on landisk, and /proc/sys/vm/vdso_enabled
disappeared.

Adding some debug prints shows that kzalloc() in
__register_sysctl_table() fails, presumably because it is called too
early in the boot process.

Moving the call to register_sysctl_init() into its own fs_initcall(),
like the gmail-whitespace-damaged patch below, fixes that.

Thank you so much for your test and fix patch !

I will fix it in patches series v5.
