arm64/vdso: don't leak kernel addresses



Since commit ad67b74d ("printk: hash addresses printed with %p"),
two obfuscated kernel pointer are printed at every boot:

    vdso: 2 pages (1 code @ (____ptrval____), 1 data @ (____ptrval____))

Remove the the print completely, as it's useless without the addresses.

Fixes: ad67b74d ("printk: hash addresses printed with %p")
