For the same reason as commit e876f0b69d ("lib/vdso: Allow
architectures to provide the vdso data pointer"), powerpc wants to
avoid calculation of relative position to code.
As the timens_vdso_data is next page to vdso_data, provide
vdso_data pointer to __arch_get_timens_vdso_data() in order
to ease the calculation on powerpc in following patches.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
