[PATCH 2/2] powerpc/vdso32: link vdso64 with linker

Rather than invoke the compiler as the driver, use the linker. That way
we can check --orphan-handling=warn support correctly, as cc-ldoption
was removed in
commit 055efab3120b ("kbuild: drop support for cc-ldoption").

Requires dropping the .got section.  I couldn't find how it was used in
the vdso32.

Fixes: commit f2af201002a8 ("powerpc/build: vdso linker warning for orphan sections")

Not sure removing .got is a good idea or not.  Otherwise I observe the
following link error:
powerpc-linux-gnu-ld: warning: orphan section `.got' from `arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso32/sigtramp.o' being placed in section `.got'
powerpc-linux-gnu-ld: _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ not defined in linker created .got
powerpc-linux-gnu-ld: final link failed: bad value

sigtramp.c doesn't mention anything from the GOT AFAICT, and doesn't
look like it contains relocations that do, so I'm not sure where
references to _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ are coming from.
