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.
