There are three choices:
vsyscall=native: Vsyscalls are native code that issues the
corresponding syscalls.
vsyscall=emulate (default): Vsyscalls are emulated by instruction
fault traps, tested in the bad_area path. The actual contents of
the vsyscall page is the same as the vsyscall=native case except
that it's marked NX. This way programs that make assumptions about
what the code in the page does will not be confused when they read
that code.
vsyscall=none: Trying to execute a vsyscall will segfault.

getcpu is available as a vdso entry and an emulated vsyscall.
Programs that for some reason don't want to use the vdso should
still be able to call getcpu without relying on the slow emulated
vsyscall. It costs almost nothing to expose it as a real syscall.
We also need this for the following patch in vsyscall=native mode.

Three places in the kernel assume that the only long mode CPL 3
selector is __USER_CS. This is not true on Xen -- Xen's sysretq
changes cs to the magic value 0xe033.
Two of the places are corner cases, but as of "x86-64: Improve
vsyscall emulation CS and RIP handling"
(c9712944b2a12373cb6ff8059afcfb7e826a6c54), vsyscalls will segfault
if called with Xen's extra CS selector. This causes a panic when
older init builds die.
It seems impossible to make Xen use __USER_CS reliably without
taking a performance hit on every system call, so this fixes the
tests instead with a new paravirt op. It's a little ugly because
ptrace.h can't include paravirt.h.

Gold has trouble assigning numbers to the location counter inside of
an output section description. The bug was triggered by
9fd67b4ed0714ab718f1f9bd14c344af336a6df7, which consolidated all of
the vsyscall sections into a single section. The workaround is IMO
still nicer than the old way of doing it.
This produces an apparently valid kernel image and passes my vdso

Commit 7416401 ("arm: davinci: Fix fallout from generic irq chip

get a bogus irq number as an argument. The gpio irq handler falsely
assumes that the handler data is the irq base number and that is no
longer true.
Set the irq handler data to be a pointer to the corresponding gpio
controller. The chained irq handler can then use it to extract both the
irq base number and the gpio registers structure.

Just compiling pseries in the kernel causes it to override
memory_block_size_bytes() regardless of what is the runtime
platform.
This cleans up the implementation of that function, fixing
a bug or two while at it, so that it's harmless (and potentially
useful) for other platforms. Without this, bugs in that code
would trigger a WARN_ON() in drivers/base/memory.c when
booting some different platforms.
If/when we have another platform supporting memory hotplug we
might want to either move that out to a generic place or
make it a ppc_md. callback.

Commit 2706a0bf7b ("x86, NUMA: Enable CONFIG_AMD_NUMA on 32bit
too") enabled AMD NUMA for 32bit too. Unfortunately, SPARSEMEM
on 32bit had rather coarse (512MiB) addr->node mapping
granularity due to lack of space in page->flags. This led to
boot failure on certain AMD NUMA machines which had 128MiB
alignment on nodes.
Patches to properly detect this condition and reject NUMA
configuration are posted[1] but deemed too pervasive for merge
at this point (-rc6). Disable AMD NUMA for 32bit for now and
re-enable once the detection logic is merged.
