As you mentioned in the commit message, this patch has two objectives.
1. It moves the vdso_enabled table and 2. It removes the vm_table.
Please separate these two in such a way that the second (removal of
vm_table) can be done at the end and is not related to any particular
table under vm_table. I prefer it that way so that the removal of
vm_table does not block the upstreaming of a move that is already
reviewed and ready.
