[PATCH v4 2/6] arm64: vdso32: Detect binutils support for dmb ishld

[Vincenzo Frascino]

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.
