x86, vdso: Fix an OOPS accessing the HPET mapping w/o an HPET

The oops can be triggered in qemu using -no-hpet (but not nohpet) by
running a 32-bit program and reading a couple of pages before the vdso.
This should send SIGBUS instead of OOPSing.

The bug was introduced by:

commit 7a59ed415f5b57469e22e41fc4188d5399e0b194
Author: Stefani Seibold <stefani@seibold.net>
Date: Mon Mar 17 23:22:09 2014 +0100

x86, vdso: Add 32 bit VDSO time support for 32 bit kernel

which is new in 3.15.
