- *
- * In normal kernel code, they are used like any other variable.
- * In user code, they are accessed through the VVAR macro.
- *
- * These variables live in a page of kernel data that has an extra RO
- * mapping for userspace. Each variable needs a unique offset within
- * that page; specify that offset with the DECLARE_VVAR macro. (If
- * you mess up, the linker will catch it.)
