Bug#847154: linux-image-amd64: Disabling vsyscall interface may break docker run



Control: reassign -1 src:linux 4.8.4-1~exp1
Control: tag -1 pending

This change also broke the version of dietlibc in stable, and even some
packages in unstable.  (dietlibc is statically linked, and they had not
been rebuilt since dietlibc stopped using vsyscalls.)

As quite a few packages are affected and this change doesn't make much
of an improvement to security, it will be reverted in the next linux
upload.  However, it can be re-applied after the release of stretch as
users are expected to upgrade fully to current stable before installing
newer packages from unstable/testing/stable-backports.
