MIPS: VDSO: Build with `-fno-strict-aliasing'
Avoid an aliasing issue causing a build error in VDSO:

cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
make[2]: *** [arch/mips/vdso/gettimeofday.o] Error 1
with a CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_WORK configuration and GCC 5.2.0. Include
`-fno-strict-aliasing' along with compiler options used, as required for
kernel code, fixing a problem present since the introduction of VDSO
with commit ebb5e78cc634 ("MIPS: Initial implementation of a VDSO").
Thanks to Tejun for diagnosing this properly!
