  x86-64: Add --no-undefined to vDSO build
  x86-64: Allow alternative patching in the vDSO
  x86: Make alternative instruction pointers relative
  x86-64: Improve vsyscall emulation CS and RIP handling
  x86-64: Emulate legacy vsyscalls
  x86-64: Fill unused parts of the vsyscall page with 0xcc
  x86-64: Remove vsyscall number 3 (venosys)
  x86-64: Map the HPET NX
  x86-64: Remove kernel.vsyscall64 sysctl
