  2  * GCC stack protector support. 
  3  *                             
  4  * Stack protector works by putting predefined pattern at the start of 
  5  * the stack frame and verifying that it hasn't been overwritten when 
  6  * returning from the function.  The pattern is called stack canary        
  7  * and gcc expects it to be defined by a global variable called            
  8  * "__stack_chk_guard" on ARM.  This unfortunately means that on SMP       
  9  * we cannot have a different canary value per task.
