Just to be clear, these are both upstream commits. Is there any work
going on upstream to resolve the issue?

Currently eoan is using a kernel copied forward from disco, but we
should be putting a 5.2 kernel into eoan-proposed within the next couple
of weeks. This is likely to be before we could expect to see them in a
disco-proposed kernel, as the patch deadline for the next kernel SRU
cycle has passed.

I agree that the likelihood of regressions is slim for us, as the
changes were made only to support builds using clang. So I will go ahead
and revert these in our 5.2 tree.

I'm not sure why there's a xenial nomination here for a ftbfs in eoan
though ...

Title:
  Revert x86/vdso linker changes from #1830890 as this causes glibc
  2.29-0ubuntu3 FTBFS on eoan

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  As reported in #1833067 and 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/+bug/1830890/comments/7 some 
glibc testcases are still regressing on i386 after applying both the following 
commits:

  commit 379d98ddf41344273d9718556f761420f4dc80b3
  Author: Alistair Strachan <astrac...@google.com>
  Date: Fri Aug 3 10:39:31 2018 -0700

      x86: vdso: Use $LD instead of $CC to link

  commit cd01544a268ad8ee5b1dfe42c4393f1095f86879
  Author: Alistair Strachan <astrac...@google.com>
  Date: Fri Dec 14 14:36:37 2018 -0800

      x86/vdso: Pass --eh-frame-hdr to the linker

  
  [Fix]
  Revert both these patches to restore the original behaviour.

  [Test]
  ADT tests for glibc.

  [Regression Potential]
  Low. This restores the status quo before the original change to 
vdso/x86/Makefile to restore the original linker behaviour.
