    Subject[071/140] x86: Fix vsyscall on gcc 4.5 with -Os
    2.6.33-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

    ------------------

    From: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org>

    commit 124482935fb7fb9303c8a8ab930149c6a93d9910 upstream.

    This fixes the -Os breaks with gcc 4.5 bug. rdtsc_barrier needs to be
    force inlined, otherwise user space will jump into kernel space and
    kill init.

    This also addresses http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44129
    I believe.
