As reported by Will Deacon, older versions of binutils that do not
support certain types of memory barriers can cause build failure of the
vdso32 library.

Add a compilation time mechanism that detects if binutils supports those
instructions and configure the kernel accordingly.

It's a shame that we have to duplicate the logic from scripts/Kbuild.include
here. Is there a way to reuse those helpers by temporarily overriding things
like CC and KBUILD_AFLAGS? If not, no bother, but thought I'd better ask.

I tried to define a rule in scripts/Kbuild.include at the beginning doing what
you are saying but I could not end up with a working solution, hence I ended up
with a dedicated one.
