Sorry for the wait, I just sat down to work on this again yesterday.

Tested this series on top of stable/linux-5.7.y (5.7.0 at the time of 
writing), plus the one-line signal handler patch. Had to rewind to the 
state of powerpc/merge at the time of the mail before the patch would 
apply, then cherry-picked to 5.6 until I realized the patchset used some 
functionality that didn't land until 5.7, so I moved it there.

Good news is that `date` now works correctly with the vdso call in 32-bit 
LE. Bad news is it seems to have broken things on the 64-bit side—in my 
testing, Void kicks off runit but hangs after starting eudev, and in a 
Debian Stretch system, systemd doesn't get to the point of printing 
anything whatsoever. (I had to `init=/bin/sh` to confirm the date worked 
in ppcle, although in ppc64le running `date` also hung the system when it 
made the vdso call...) Not sure how to approach debugging that, so I'd 
appreciate any pointers.
