Subject: [PATCH] x86/vdso: ensure vdso32_enabled gets set to valid values only

If either via kernel command line 'vdso32=' or via 'sysctl abi.vsyscall32'
vdso32_enabled gets set to a value below 0 or above 1, load_vdso32() won't
map the vDSO but ARCH_DLINFO_IA32 would still pass an AT_SYSINFO_EHDR
auxiliary vector, however with a NULL pointer. That'll make any program
trying to make use of it fail with a segmentation fault. At least musl
makes use of it if the kernel provides it.

Ensure vdso32_enabled gets set to valid values only to fix this corner
case.

This is still bustable. Let's start with: vdso32_enabled = false

arch_setup_additional_pages()
--> No mapping

sysctl.vsysscall32()
--> vdso32_enabled = true

create_elf_tables()
if (vdso32_enabled) {
--> Add VDSO entry with NULL pointer

The vdso map code needs to store a flag in current which can be checked in
ARCH_DLINFO_IA32.

Thanks,

It's ways simpler. Patch below.
