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,
