UPSTREAM: arm64: vdso: Build vDSO with -ffixed-x18

Browse source 
The vDSO needs to be built with x18 reserved in order to accommodate
userspace platform ABIs built on top of Linux that use the register
to carry inter-procedural state, as provided for by the AAPCS.
An example of such a platform ABI is the one that will be used by an
upcoming version of Android.

Although this change is currently a no-op due to the fact that the vDSO
is currently implemented in pure assembly on arm64, it is necessary
in order to prepare for using the generic C implementation of the vDSO.
