x86 vDSO: consolidate vdso32

Browse Source 
This makes x86_64's ia32 emulation support share the sources used in the
32-bit kernel for the 32-bit vDSO and much of its setup code.

The 32-bit vDSO mapping now behaves the same on x86_64 as on native 32-bit.
The abi.syscall32 sysctl on x86_64 now takes the same values that
vm.vdso_enabled takes on the 32-bit kernel.  That is, 1 means a randomized
vDSO location, 2 means the fixed old address.  The CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO
option is now available to make this the default setting, the same meaning
it has for the 32-bit kernel.  (This does not affect the 64-bit vDSO.)

The argument vdso32=[012] can be used on both 32-bit and 64-bit kernels to
set this paramter at boot time.  The vdso=[012] argument still does this
same thing on the 32-bit kernel.

Map the VDSO to the predictable old-style address too.
