Subject: [PATCH] riscv: hwprobe: do not produce frtace relocation

Such relocation causes crash of android linker similar to one
described in commit e05d57dcb8c7
("riscv: Fixup __vdso_gettimeofday broke dynamic ftrace").

Looks like this relocation is added by CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE which is
disabled in the default android kernel.

Before:

readelf -rW arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/vdso.so:

Relocation section '.rela.dyn' at offset 0xd00 contains 1 entry:
    Offset             Info             Type
0000000000000d20  0000000000000003 R_RISCV_RELATIVE

objdump:
0000000000000c86 <__vdso_riscv_hwprobe@@LINUX_4.15>:
 c86:   0001                    nop
 c88:   0001                    nop
 c8a:   0001                    nop
 c8c:   0001                    nop
 c8e:   e211                    bnez    a2,c92 <__vdso_riscv_hwprobe...

After:
readelf -rW arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/vdso.so:

There are no relocations in this file.

objdump:
0000000000000c86 <__vdso_riscv_hwprobe@@LINUX_4.15>:
 c86:   e211                    bnez    a2,c8a <__vdso_riscv_hwprobe...
 c88:   c6b9                    beqz    a3,cd6 <__vdso_riscv_hwprobe...
 c8a:   e739                    bnez    a4,cd8 <__vdso_riscv_hwprobe...
 c8c:   ffffd797                auipc   a5,0xffffd

Also disable SCS since it also should not be available in vdso.
