x86/vdso: Fix the build on GCC5
On gcc5 the kernel does not link: ld: .eh_frame_hdr table[4] FDE at 0000000000000648 overlaps table[5] FDE at 0000000000000670. Because prior GCC versions always emitted NOPs on ALIGN directives, but gcc5 started omitting them. .LSTARTFDEDLSI1 says: /* HACK: The dwarf2 unwind routines will subtract 1 from the return address to get an address in the middle of the presumed call instruction. Since we didn't get here via a call, we need to include the nop before the real start to make up for it. */ .long .LSTART_sigreturn-1-. /* PC-relative start address */ But commit 69d0627a7f6e ("x86 vDSO: reorder vdso32 code") from 2.6.25 replaced .org __kernel_vsyscall+32,0x90 by ALIGN right before __kernel_sigreturn. Of course, ALIGN need not generate any NOP in there. Esp. gcc5 collapses vclock_gettime.o and int80.o together with no generated NOPs as "ALIGN". So fix this by adding to that point at least a single NOP and make the function ALIGN possibly with more NOPs then. Kudos for reporting and diagnosing should go to Richard.
