On powerpc, a call to a VDSO function is not a standard C function
call. Unlike x86 that returns a negated error code in case of an
error, powerpc sets CR[SO] and returns the error code as a
positive value.
So use a macro called VDSO_CALL() which takes a pointer to the
function to call, the number of arguments and the arguments.
