This seems reasonable.  Building the VDSO with asan results in a bunch of PLT
entries for the VDSO stubs.  I don't see a sane way to resolve those, and it
looks like this is what everyone else is doing.

That said, the commit text is a bit funny so I've written one of my own.  This
is on for-next, as it's still the merge window.  Let me know if the text
doesn't make sense.

Thanks!
