MIPS: Fix sigreturn via VDSO on microMIPS kernel

Browse source

commit 13eb192d10 upstream.

In microMIPS kernels, handle_signal() sets the isa16 mode bit in the
vdso address so that the sigreturn trampolines (which are offset from
the VDSO) get executed as microMIPS.

However commit ebb5e78cc6 ("MIPS: Initial implementation of a VDSO")
changed the offsets to come from the VDSO image, which already have the
isa16 mode bit set correctly since they're extracted from the VDSO
shared library symbol table.

Drop the isa16 mode bit handling from handle_signal() to fix sigreturn
for cores which support both microMIPS and normal MIPS. This doesn't fix
microMIPS only cores, since the VDSO is still built for normal MIPS, but
thats a separate problem.
