[PATCH 3/4] x86,mm: Improve _install_special_mapping and fix x86 vdso naming

From: Andy Lutomirski
Date: Mon May 19 2014 - 18:58:52 EST


Using arch_vma_name to give special mappings a name is awkward. x86
currently implements it by comparing the start address of the vma to
the expected address of the vdso. This requires tracking the start
address of special mappings and is probably buggy if a special vma
is split or moved.

Improve _install_special_mapping to just name the vma directly. Use
it to give the x86 vvar area a name, which should make CRIU's life
easier.

As a side effect, the vvar area will show up in core dumps. This
could be considered weird and is fixable. Thoughts?
