Four fixes for compat vdso, the first three are related, the fourth is
standalone.

The first three fix a warning observed for `mrproper` targets when
$(CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT)gcc is not in the $PATH.

The fourth makes is so that CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT is not necessary to
select COMPAT_VDSO when using clang+lld.

Based on arm64/linux.git/for-next/misc.

Changes v1 -> v2:
* Fix binutils version numbers in 1/4 as per Christian.
* Add new patch 2/4 as per Arnd.
* Rewrite 3/4 to use redirection of stderr to /dev/null, as per
  Masahiro.
* Add parens and update commit message of 4/4 as per Nathan.
