Subject: [PATCH 2/6] arm64/vdso: Zap vvar pages when switching to a time namespace

From: Andrei Vagin <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 2 Jun 2020 11:02:55 -0700

The VVAR page layout depends on whether a task belongs to the root or
non-root time namespace. Whenever a task changes its namespace, the VVAR
page tables are cleared and then they will be re-faulted with a
corresponding layout.
