[PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 003/180] arm64: vdso: fix build error when switching from LE to BE

[Luis Henriques]

3.16.7-ckt11 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Arun Chandran <achandran at mvista.com>

commit 1915e2ad1cf548217c963121e4076b3d44dd0169 upstream.

Building a kernel with CPU_BIG_ENDIAN fails if there are stale objects
from a !CPU_BIG_ENDIAN build. Due to a missing FORCE prerequisite on an
if_changed rule in the VDSO Makefile, we attempt to link a stale LE
object into the new BE kernel.

According to Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt, FORCE is required for
if_changed rules and forgetting it is a common mistake, so fix it by
'Forcing' the build of vdso. This patch fixes build errors like these:

arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/note.o: compiled for a little endian system and target is big endian
failed to merge target specific data of file arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/note.o

arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/sigreturn.o: compiled for a little endian system and target is big endian
failed to merge target specific data of file arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/sigreturn.o
