Okay, it doesn't blow away the VDSO contents, it merely copies
the value of vdso_base (something I would have been able to discern more
quickly without the macro, btw).
But you'll still have to ensure that vdso region is installed at the
address that the restarting task expects -- see
arch/s390/kernel/vdso.c::arch_setup_additional_pages.
