[PATCH v11 9/9] x86: Disallow vsyscall emulation when CET is enabled

[Yu-cheng Yu <yu-cheng.yu@intel.com>]

From: "H.J. Lu" <hjl.tools@gmail.com>

Emulation of the legacy vsyscall page is required by some programs built
before 2013.  Newer programs after 2013 don't use it.  Disallow vsyscall
emulation when Control-flow Enforcement (CET) is enabled to enhance
security.
