As of this commit http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-tip-commits/msg30360.html the overzealous kconfig message that seemed to suggest that the vm86() syscall was a security hazard in itself has been revised to reflect reality. Also please note that even if this kconfig option is enabled the runtime default is still off as vm86 is only actually enabled if the sysctl vm.mmap_min_addr is set to 0. That said, allowing vm.mmap_min_addr=0 is a known security risk and enabling the vm86() syscall to operate additionally would add little value to any potential attacker.
