As reported by Will Deacon the following compilation warning appears
during the compilation of the vdso32:

In file included from ./arch/arm64/include/asm/thread_info.h:17:0,
                 from ./include/linux/thread_info.h:38,
                 from ./arch/arm64/include/asm/preempt.h:5,
                 from ./include/linux/preempt.h:78,
                 from ./include/linux/spinlock.h:51,
                 from ./include/linux/seqlock.h:36,
                 from ./include/linux/time.h:6,
                 from .../work/linux/lib/vdso/gettimeofday.c:7,
                 from <command-line>:0:
./arch/arm64/include/asm/memory.h: In function ‘__tag_set’:
./arch/arm64/include/asm/memory.h:233:15: warning: cast from pointer to
integer of different size [-Wpointer-to-int-cast]
  u64 __addr = (u64)addr & ~__tag_shifted(0xff);
               ^
In file included from ./arch/arm64/include/asm/pgtable-hwdef.h:8:0,
                 from ./arch/arm64/include/asm/processor.h:34,
                 from ./arch/arm64/include/asm/elf.h:118,
                 from ./include/linux/elf.h:5,
                 from ./include/linux/elfnote.h:62,
                 from arch/arm64/kernel/vdso32/note.c:11:
./arch/arm64/include/asm/memory.h: In function ‘__tag_set’:
./arch/arm64/include/asm/memory.h:233:15: warning: cast from pointer to
integer of different size [-Wpointer-to-int-cast]
  u64 __addr = (u64)addr & ~__tag_shifted(0xff);
               ^

This happens because few 64 bit compilation headers are included during
the generation of vdso32.

Fix the issue redefining the __tag_set function.

Note: This fix is meant to be temporary, a more comprehensive solution
based on the refactoring of the generic headers will be provided with a
future patch set. At that point it will be possible to revert this patch.

With this note, I'm fine with the patch.

Sorry, but I'm not taking this.

I know you're trying to fix the issues I reported as quickly as you can (and
thank you for that), but I'm sure that you agree this needs more thought to
develop a proper solution to what is a much bigger issue than can be solved
by sprinkling #ifdefs. I can live with the warning on the basis that a
proper fix is in the pipeline, but in the meantime it can serve as a
reminder that we're not done here.

This was my original preference as well, if we silence the warnings we tend to
forget about them. Since you reported the issue as urgent, I reacted with
something that fixes it temporarily, but I have not objections if you want to
wait for a more comprehensive solution.
