[PATCH v1 00/30] Modernise VDSO setup

This series modernises the setup of VDSO:
- Switch to using _install_special_mapping() which has replaced install_special_mapping()
- Move datapage in front of text like most other architectures to simplify its localisation
- Perform link time symbol resolution instead of runtime

This leads to a huge size reduction of vdso.c

Replaces the two following series:
 [v1,1/9] powerpc/vdso: Remove BUG_ON() in vdso_init()
 [v2,1/5] powerpc/vdso: Remove DBG()

This series is based on top of the series to the C generic VDSO.
It is functionnaly independant but some trivial merge conflict
occurs in some files. I may rebase it on top of merge if the
C generic VDSO series cannot be merged soon.
