arm64: vdso: Only pass --no-eh-frame-hdr when linker supports it
Commit 87676cfca141 ("arm64: vdso: Disable dwarf unwinding through the
sigreturn trampoline") unconditionally passes the '--no-eh-frame-hdr'
option to the linker when building the native vDSO in an attempt to
prevent generation of the .eh_frame_hdr section, the presence of which
has been implicated in segfaults originating from the libgcc unwinder.
Unfortunately, not all versions of binutils support this option, which
has been shown to cause build failures in linux-next:
| CALL scripts/atomic/check-atomics.sh
| CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh
| LD arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/vdso.so.dbg
| ld: unrecognized option '--no-eh-frame-hdr'
| ld: use the --help option for usage information
| arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/Makefile:64: recipe for target
| 'arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/vdso.so.dbg' failed
| make[1]: *** [arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/vdso.so.dbg] Error 1
| arch/arm64/Makefile:175: recipe for target 'vdso_prepare' failed
| make: *** [vdso_prepare] Error 2
Only link the vDSO with '--no-eh-frame-hdr' when the linker supports it.
If we end up with the section due to linker defaults, the absence of CFI
information in the sigreturn trampoline will prevent the unwinder from
breaking.
