x86/vdso: Error out if the vDSO isn't a valid DSO

Browse Source 
Some distros has been playing with toolchain changes that can affect
the type of ELF objects built.  Occasionally, this goes wrong and
the vDSO ends up not being a DSO at all.  This causes the kernel to
end up broken in a surprisingly subtle way -- glibc apparently
silently ignores a vDSO that isn't a DSO, so everything works,
albeit slowly, until users try a different libc implementation.

Make the kernel build process a bit more robust: fail outright if
the vDSO isn't ET_DYN or is missing its PT_DYNAMIC segment.  I've
never seen this in an unmodified kernel.
