Subject: [PATCH 4.19 04/21] ARM: 8867/1: vdso: pass --be8 to linker if necessary

From: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@...c4.com>

[ Upstream commit c5d0e49e8d8f1a23034fdf8e935afc0c8f7ae27d ]

The commit fe00e50b2db8 ("ARM: 8858/1: vdso: use $(LD) instead of $(CC)
to link VDSO") removed the passing of CFLAGS, since ld doesn't take
those directly. However, prior, big-endian ARM was relying on gcc to
translate its -mbe8 option into ld's --be8 option. Lacking this, ld
generated be32 code, making the VDSO generate SIGILL when called by
userspace.

This commit passes --be8 if CONFIG_CPU_ENDIAN_BE8 is enabled.
