PATCH 1/1 Suppress more generated files via Documentation/dontdiff

Can the patch below please be reviewed ? Last time I ran diff over two kernel trees I noted that several generated files were included in the diff. The patch below suppresses these generated files (modules.order, timeconst.h and several vdso* and vdso32* files).

This patch is now obsolete and has been replaced by a new patch -- see also http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/20/32.
