The compat vDSO is a complicated hack that's needed to maintain
compatibility with a small range of glibc versions.

This removes it and replaces it with a much simpler hack: a config
option to disable the 32-bit vDSO by default.

This also changes the default value of CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO to n --
users configuring kernels from scratch almost certainly want that
choice.

-         Map the 32-bit VDSO to the predictable old-style address too.
+         Certain buggy versions of glibc will crash if they are
+         presented with a 32-bit vDSO that is not mapped at the address
+         indicated in its segment table.
 
-         Say N here if you are running a sufficiently recent glibc
-         version (2.3.3 or later), to remove the high-mapped
-         VDSO mapping and to exclusively use the randomized VDSO.
+         The bug was introduced by f866314b89d56845f55e6f365e18b31ec978ec3a
+         and fixed by 3b3ddb4f7db98ec9e912ccdf54d35df4aa30e04a and
+         49ad572a70b8aeb91e57483a11dd1b77e31c4468.  Glibc 2.3.3 is
+         the only released version with the bug, but OpenSUSE 9
+         contains a buggy "glibc 2.3.2".
 
-         If unsure, say Y.
+         The symptom of the bug is that everything crashes on startup, saying:
+         dl_main: Assertion `(void *) ph->p_vaddr == _rtld_local._dl_sysinfo_dso' failed!
+
+         Saying Y here changes the default value of the vdso32 boot
+         option from 1 to 0, which turns off the 32-bit vDSO entirely.
+         This works around the glibc bug but hurts performance.
+
+         If unsure, say N: if you are compiling your own kernel, you
+         are unlikely to be using a buggy version of glibc.
