Do you have any more info where you found this?  I don't see -s
documented as an assembler flag.
https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/as/PowerPC_002dOpts.html
https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/as/Invoking.html

The patch seems fine to me, but what was this ever supposed to be?
FWICT it predates git history (looking at
arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso32/Makefile at fc15351d9d63)
