Are you on AMD?  Can you try this patch:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/luto/linux.git/commit/?h=x86/fixes&id=c88aa6d53840e48970c54f9ef70c79415033b32d

and give me a Tested-by if it fixes it for you?

I don't know about these.

The patch that added these test lines was the same patch that should have
made them pass.  Are you sure your tests match your running kernel?  You
need commit 8bb2610bc4967f19672444a7b0407367f1540028.

If you still have failures, can you send me the complete output from the
test_syscall_vdso test?
