Subject: [GIT pull] x86 vdso updates

Linus,

Please pull the latest x86-vdso-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git x86-vdso-for-linus

Thanks,

	tglx

------------------>
Andy Lutomirski (8):
      x86-64: Clean up vdso/kernel shared variables
      x86-64: Remove unnecessary barrier in vread_tsc
      x86-64: Don't generate cmov in vread_tsc
      x86-64: Vclock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) can't ever see nsec < 0
      x86-64: Move vread_tsc into a new file with sensible options
      x86-64: Turn off -pg and turn on -foptimize-sibling-calls for vDSO
      x86-64: Add time to vDSO
      x86-64: Optimize vDSO time()
