The VDSO datapage and the text pages are always located immediately
next to each other, so it can be hardcoded without an indirection
through __kernel_datapage_offset
Before:
clock-getres-realtime-coarse: vdso: 714 nsec/call
clock-gettime-realtime-coarse: vdso: 792 nsec/call
clock-gettime-realtime: vdso: 1243 nsec/call
After:
clock-getres-realtime-coarse: vdso: 699 nsec/call
clock-gettime-realtime-coarse: vdso: 784 nsec/call
clock-gettime-realtime: vdso: 1231 nsec/call
