-MIPS: Avoid a dangling `vfork@GLIBC_2.0' reference
-
-This satisfies a symbol reference created with:
-
- .symver __libc_vfork, vfork@GLIBC_2.0
-
-where `__libc_vfork' has not been defined or referenced. In this case
-the `vfork@GLIBC_2.0' reference is supposed to be discarded, however a
-bug present in GAS since forever causes an undefined symbol table entry
-to be created. This in turn triggers a problem in the linker that can
-manifest itself by link errors such as:
-
-ld: libpthread.so: invalid string offset 2765592330 >= 5154 for section `.dynstr'
-
-The GAS and linker bugs need to be resolved, but we can avoid them too
-by providing a `__libc_vfork' definition just like our other platforms.
-
- [BZ #17485]
- * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/vfork.S (__libc_vfork): Define.

-(cherry picked from commit b5af9297d51a43f96c5be1bafab032184690dd6f)
