Subject: [PATCH] x86/vdso: Only enable vDSO retpolines when enabled and supported

When I fixed the vDSO build to use inline retpolines, I messed up
the Makefile logic and made it unconditional.  It should have
depended on CONFIG_RETPOLINE and on the availability of compiler
support.  This broke the build on some older compilers.

Fixes: 2e549b2ee0e3 ("x86/vdso: Fix vDSO build if a retpoline is emitted")
