Subject: Re: [PATCH v3 1/5] selftests/x86: Simplify the code to get vdso base

What the short summary is saying now, is that this commit would make the
existing code to use vDSO base address. It's already doing that.

You could instead just "Use getauxval() to simplify the code".

Also, I'd prefer to properly use upper and lower case letter, e.g.  vDSO
instead of vdso.

Use either double or single quotation mark instead of hyphen.

This needs to be imperative form, e.g. "Simplify the code implemntation
by using getauxval() instead of a custom function."

You could just case the result the result directly to void *.
