Subject: Re: [patch 00/11] x86/vdso: Cleanups, simmplifications and CLOCK_TAI support

For better or for worse, I'm trying to understand this code.  So far,
I've come up with this patch:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/luto/linux.git/commit/?h=x86/vdso-tglx&id=14fd71e12b1c4492a06f368f75041f263e6862bf

Is it correct, or am I missing some subtlety?
