From: Eric Dumazet <[email protected]>
We apparently hit the 1024 limit of vsyscall_0 zone when some debugging
options are set, or if __vsyscall_gtod_data is 64 bytes larger.
In order to save 128 bytes from the vsyscall_0 zone, we move __vgetcpu_mode
& __jiffies to vsyscall_2 zone where they really belong, since they are
used only from vgetcpu() (which is in this vsyscall_2 area).
After patch is applied, new layout is :
ffffffffff600000 T vgettimeofday
ffffffffff60004e t vsysc2
ffffffffff600140 t vread_hpet
ffffffffff600150 t vread_tsc
ffffffffff600180 D __vsyscall_gtod_data
ffffffffff600400 T vtime
ffffffffff600413 t vsysc1
ffffffffff600800 T vgetcpu
ffffffffff600870 D __vgetcpu_mode
ffffffffff600880 D __jiffies
ffffffffff600c00 T venosys_1
