Subject: [PATCH v2] arm: Added support for getcpu() vDSO using TPIDRURW
This makes getcpu() ~1000 times faster, this is very useful when
implementing per-cpu buffers in userspace (to avoid cache line
bouncing). As an example lttng ust becomes ~30% faster.
The patch will break applications using TPIDRURW (which is context switched
since commit 4780adeefd042482f624f5e0d577bf9cdcbb760 ("ARM: 7735/2:
Preserve the user r/w register TPIDRURW on context switch and fork")) and
is therefore made configurable.
