This series makes me sad. It brings the 64-bit vdso back above 4kB, like it was in 3.15. It's also just silly, but it seems to be needed to keep binutils happy when debugging the vdso.
Patch 5 isn't really necessary, and is likely not 3.16 material. It's useful for testing the rest of this series, though.
