x86/vdso: Improve the fake section headers
Fully stripping the vDSO has other unfortunate side effects:
- binutils is unable to find ELF notes without a SHT_NOTE section.
- Even elfutils has trouble: it can find ELF notes without a section
table at all, but if a section table is present, it won't look for
PT_NOTE.
- gdb wants section names to match between stripped DSOs and their
symbols; otherwise it will corrupt symbol addresses.
We're also breaking the rules: section 0 is supposed to be SHT_NULL.
Fix these problems by building a better fake section table. While
we're at it, we might as well let buggy Go versions keep working well
by giving the SHT_DYNSYM entry the correct size.
This is a bit unfortunate: it adds quite a bit of size to the vdso
image.
If/when binutils improves and the improved versions become widespread,
it would be worth considering dropping most of this.

- * Hack to keep broken Go programs working.
- *
- * The Go runtime had a couple of bugs: it would read the section table to try
- * to figure out how many dynamic symbols there were (it shouldn't have looked
- * at the section table at all) and, if there were no SHT_SYNDYM section table
- * entry, it would use an uninitialized value for the number of symbols. As a

- *
- * The bug was introduced by:
- * https://code.google.com/p/go/source/detail?r=56ea40aac72b (2012-08-31)
- * and is being addressed in the Go runtime in this issue:
- * https://code.google.com/p/go/issues/detail?id=8197
+ * String table for loadable section headers. See vdso2c.h for why

+ *
+ * The bug was introduced on 2012-08-31 by:
+ * https://code.google.com/p/go/source/detail?r=56ea40aac72b
+ * and was fixed on 2014-06-13 by:

+ *
+ * Binutils has issues debugging the vDSO: it reads the section table to
+ * find SHT_NOTE; it won't look at PT_NOTE for the in-memory vDSO, which
+ * would break build-id if we removed the section table. Binutils
+ * also requires that shstrndx != 0. See:
+ * https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17064
+ *
+ * elfutils might not look for PT_NOTE if there is a section table at
+ * all. I don't know whether this matters for any practical purpose.
+ *
+ * For simplicity, rather than hacking up a partial section table, we
+ * just write a mostly complete one. We omit non-dynamic symbols,
+ * though, since they're rather large.
+ *
+ * Once binutils gets fixed, we might be able to drop this for all but
+ * the 64-bit vdso, since build-id only works in kernel RPMs, and
+ * systems that update to new enough kernel RPMs will likely update
+ * binutils in sync. build-id has never worked for home-built kernel
+ * RPMs without manual symlinking, and I suspect that no one ever does
