Subject: x86/um: Drop gate area handling
X-Git-Tag: v6.19-rc1~104^2~8
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=dbd7cf408ab74abb62ae483a81094abb45c9111b;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

x86/um: Drop gate area handling

With the removal of the vDSO passthrough from the host,
FIXADDR_USER_START is always 0 and the gate area setup code is dead.

Remove it.
