Ard Biesheuvel dfbdcda280 gcc-plugins: arm-ssp: Prepare for THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK support
We will be enabling THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK support for ARM, which means
that we can no longer load the stack canary value by masking the stack
pointer and taking the copy that lives in thread_info. Instead, we will
be able to load it from the task_struct directly, by using the TPIDRURO
register which will hold the current task pointer when
THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK is in effect. This is much more straight-forward,
and allows us to declutter this code a bit while at it.

Note that this means that ARMv6 (non-v6K) SMP systems can no longer use
this feature, but those are quite rare to begin with, so this is a
reasonable trade off.

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