3  * GCC stack protector support.

5  * Stack protector works by putting predefined pattern at the start of
6  * the stack frame and verifying that it hasn't been overwritten when
7  * returning from the function.  The pattern is called stack canary
8  * and gcc expects it to be defined by a global variable called
9  * "__stack_chk_guard" on ARM.  This prevents SMP systems from using a
10  * different value for each task unless we enable a GCC plugin that
11  * replaces these symbol references with references to each task's own
12  * value.
