Sure, no problem. This is the text I was working on if you want to fold it in.

While it duplicates hundreds of lines of code, this is the
short term strategy Cyrill and I have agreed to for supporting
VDSOs across multiple architectures [1]. With better
understanding of where things differ per-architecture, or even
improved consolidation in the kernel, we can hopefully move to
a more shared implementation in the future.
