Is there a compiler flag that could be used to disable the generation of calls
to memset?

-fno-tree-loop-distribute-patterns .  But, as always, read up on it, see
what it actually does (and how it avoids your problem, and mostly: learn
what the actual problem *was*!)

This might help with various loops, but it doesn't help with the matter
that this patch fixes, which is struct initialization. I just tried it
with the arm64 patch to no avail.

Maybe -ffreestanding can help here? That should cause the vdso to be built
with the assumption that there is no libc, so it would neither add nor
remove standard library calls. Not sure if that causes other problems,
e.g. if the calling conventions are different.
