Subject: [PATCH v3 26/36] sparc64: vdso: Remove obsolete "fake section table" reservation
Date: Wed, 17 Sep 2025 16:00:28 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250917-vdso-sparc64-generic-2-v3-26-3679b1bc8ee8@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250917-vdso-sparc64-generic-2-v3-0-3679b1bc8ee8@linutronix.de>
When the vDSO logic was copied from x86 to SPARC some unused remnants of
the fake section handling were copied, too. In x86 the original fake
section handling had already been removed incompletely in commit
da861e18eccc ("x86, vdso: Get rid of the fake section mechanism").
On x86 the reservation was only cleaned up in commit 24b7c77bbb24
("x86/vdso: Remove obsolete "fake section table" reservation").
Remove the reservation for SPARC, too.
Fixes: 9a08862a5d2e ("vDSO for sparc")
Signed-off-by: Thomas Weißschuh <thomas.weissschuh@linutronix.de>
