commit 034827c727f7f3946a18355b63995b402c226c82 upstream.

The native ABI vDSO linker script vdso.lds is built by preprocessing
vdso.lds.S, with the native -mabi flag passed in to get the correct ABI
definitions. Unfortunately however certain toolchains choke on -mabi=64
without a corresponding compatible -march flag, for example:

cc1: error: ‘-march=mips32r2’ is not compatible with the selected ABI
scripts/Makefile.build:338: recipe for target 'arch/mips/vdso/vdso.lds' failed

Fix this by including ccflags-vdso in the KBUILD_CPPFLAGS for vdso.lds,
which includes the appropriate -march flag.
