From f55b74170b6aabc79af8c813b5068d3014e68ef1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Hildenbrand Date: Tue, 5 Mar 2019 15:47:14 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/vdso: don't clear PG_reserved The VDSO is part of the kernel image and therefore the struct pages are marked as reserved during boot. As we install a special mapping, the actual struct pages will never be exposed to MM via the page tables. We can therefore leave the pages marked as reserved.
