vdso shared object cannot have GOT based PIC 'jalr t9' calls because nobody set GOT table in vdso. Contributing into vdso .o files are compiled in PIC mode and as result for internal static functions calls compiler will generate 'jalr t9' instructions. Those are supposed to be converted into PC relative 'bal' calls by linker when relocation are processed. Mips global GOT entries do have dynamic relocations and they will be caught by cmd_vdso_check Makefile rule. Static PIC calls go through mips local GOT entries that do not have dynamic relocations. For those 'jalr t9' calls could be present but without dynamic relocations and they need to be converted to 'bal' calls by linker. Add additional build time check to make sure that no 'jalr t9' slip through because of some toolchain misconfiguration that prevents 'jalr t9' to 'bal' conversion.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
