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