The sh decompressor code triggers stack-protector code generation when using CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG. As done for arm and mips, add a simple static stack-protector canary. As this wasn't protected before, the risk of using a weak canary is minimized. Once the kernel is actually up, a better canary is chosen.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
