Um. This code doesn't work. I'll send a patch. I can't speak

Hi,

the next step? Is there a way to apply it to the linux-git or linux-next

This patch add the functions vdso_gettimeofday(), vdso_clock_gettime()

The reason to do this was to get a fast reliable time stamp. Many developers
uses TSC to get a fast time stamp, without knowing the pitfalls. VDSO
time functions a fast and a reliable way,
