MIPS: genvdso: Remove GOT checks
Our genvdso tool performs some rather paranoid checking that the VDSO library isn't attempting to make use of a GOT by constraining the number of entries that the GOT is allowed to contain to the minimum 2 entries that are always generated by binutils. Unfortunately lld prior to revision 334390 generates a third entry, which is unused & thus harmless but falls foul of genvdso's checks & causes the build to fail. Since we already check that the VDSO contains no relocations it seems reasonable to presume that it also doesn't contain use of a GOT, which would involve relocations. Thus rather than attempting to work around this issue by allowing 3 GOT entries when using lld, simply remove the GOT checks which seem overly paranoid.
