[PATCH] x86/reboot: Introduce all of the known reboot methods into the

Reboot is the last service linux OS provides to the end user. We are
supposed to make this function more robust than today. This patch adds

This patch add the VDSO time support for the IA32 Emulation Layer.
Due the nature of the kernel headers and the LP64 compiler where the
size of a long and a pointer differs against a 32 bit compiler, there
is some type hacking necessary for optimal performance.
The vsyscall_gtod_data struture mus
By coincidence, the VVAR page is at the end of an ELF segment. As a
result, if it ends up being a partial page, the kernel loader will
leave garbage behind at the end of the vvar page. Zero-pad it to a
full page to fix this issue.
This has probably been broken since the VVAR page was introduced.
This patch add the time support for 32 bit a VDSO to a 32 bit kernel.
For 32 bit programs running on a 32 bit kernel, the same mechanism is
used as for 64 bit programs running on a 64 bit kernel.

This patch add the functions vdso_gettimeofday(), vdso_clock_gettime()
and vdso_time() to the 32 bit VDSO.
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, be
This patch move the vsyscall_gtod_data handling out of vsyscall_64.c
into an additonal file vsyscall_gtod.c to make the functionality
available for x86 32 bit kernel.
It also adds a new vsyscall_32.c which setup the VVAR page.

It kick out an unneeded ret local variable and makes the code faster if

This patch is a small code cleanup for the __vdso_clock_gettime() function.
It removes the unneeded return values from do_monotonic_coarse() and
do_realtime_coarse() and add a fallback label for doing the kernel
gettimeofday() system call.

There a currently more than 30 users of the gtod macro, so replace the

The _install_special_mapping() is the new base function for
install_special_mapping(). This function will return a pointer of the
