Shadow stacks are only available in the kernel, so disable SCS
instrumentation for the vDSO.

I gave this a spin, looked at objdump, and found everything in the vDSO
was a leaf function. I hacked the code around a bit to force a function
call, and I see that just uses x29 and x30 as expected, with nothing
touching x18.
