After commit:

  884961618e ("x86/entry/vdso32: Remove open-coded DWARF in sigreturn.S")

building arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/sigreturn.S with LLVM 15 fails with:

  <instantiation>:18:20: error: invalid register name
   .cfi_offset eflags, 64
                     ^
  arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/sigreturn.S:33:2: note: while in macro instantiation
   STARTPROC_SIGNAL_FRAME 8
   ^

Support for eflags as an argument to .cfi_offset was added in the LLVM
16 development cycle:

    67bd3c58c0 [1]

Only add this .cfi_offset directive if it is supported by the assembler
to clear up the error.
