Being clueless about VDSO I would like to understand if it is just not
possible/doesn't make much sense to restore VDSO pages, or if it just
adds undesired complexity which is not worth it as it really is a small
number of pages.

I am in no way against these patches, I would just like to understand it
better. Thanks.
