That might be a concern once glibc startup can occur with less than a few
dozen calls to grope through the local files. ;-) Hmmm, it would be possible
to make the vsyscall page mapped by default and leave the global bit enabled
until UML forcibly unmapped it (and then clear the global bit and do a global
invalidate). Would that be acceptible?
