Thomas Weißschuh 70d52694b6 x86/um: Do not inherit vDSO from host
Inheriting the vDSO from the host is problematic. The values read
from the time functions will not be correct for the UML kernel.
Furthermore the start and end of the vDSO are not stable or
detectable by userspace. Specifically the vDSO datapages start
before AT_SYSINFO_EHDR and the vDSO itself is larger than a single page.

This codepath is only used on 32bit x86 UML. In my testing with both
32bit and 64bit hosts the passthrough functionality has always been
disabled anyways due to the checks against envp in scan_elf_aux().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
