Like it is done for SET_PERSONALITY with ARM, which requires the ELF header to select correct personality parameters, x86 requires the headers when selecting which VDSO to load, instead of relying on the going-away TIF_IA32/X32 flags. Add an indirection macro to arch_setup_additional_pages(), that x86 can reimplement to receive the extra parameter just for ELF files. This requires no changes to other architectures, who can continue to use the original arch_setup_additional_pages for ELF and non-ELF binaries.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
