However on bare metal targets (aarch64-none-elf), and on old gcc, async and sync unwind tables are not enabled by default to avoid runtime memory costs. This means if linux is built with a baremetal toolchain the vdso.so may not have unwind tables which breaks the gcc platform ABI guarantee in userspace. Add -fasynchronous-unwind-tables explicitly to the vgettimeofday.o cflags to address the ABI change.

However in __aarch32_alloc_vdso_pages() when aarch32_alloc_kuser_vdso_page() fails we attempt to free the page whose struct page is at NULL, which is obviously nonsensical. This patch removes the erroneous page freeing.

For T16 instructions, the second u16 is not read, which makes the resulting u32 opcode always have the upper half set to 0. However, having the upper half of instr_mask in the undef_hook set to 0 masks out the upper half of all thumb instructions - both T16 and T32. This results in trapped T32 instructions with the lower half-word equal to the T16 encoding of setend (b650) being matched, even though the upper half-word is not 0000 and thus indicates a T32 opcode. An example of such a T32 instruction is eaa0b650, which should raise a SIGILL since T32 instructions with an eaa prefix are unallocated as per Arm ARM, but instead works as a SETEND because the second half-word is set to b650. This patch fixes the issue by extending instr_mask to include the upper u32 half, which will still match T16 instructions where the upper half is 0, but not T32 instructions.
