    arm64,ia64,ppc,s390,sh,tile,um,x86,mm: remove default gate area · a6c19dfe
    Andy Lutomirski authored
    The core mm code will provide a default gate area based on
    FIXADDR_USER_START and FIXADDR_USER_END if
    !defined(__HAVE_ARCH_GATE_AREA) && defined(AT_SYSINFO_EHDR).
    
    This default is only useful for ia64.  arm64, ppc, s390, sh, tile, 64-bit
    UML, and x86_32 have their own code just to disable it.  arm, 32-bit UML,
    and x86_64 have gate areas, but they have their own implementations.
    
    This gets rid of the default and moves the code into ia64.
    
    This should save some code on architectures without a gate area: it's now
    possible to inline the gate_area functions in the default case.
