powerpc: Revert the initial stack protector support
Unfortunately the stack protector support we merged recently only works on some toolchains. If the toolchain is built without glibc support everything works fine, but if glibc is built then it leads to a panic at boot. The solution is not rc5 material, so revert the support for now. This reverts commits: 6533b7c16ee5 ("powerpc: Initial stack protector (-fstack-protector) support") 902e06eb86cd ("powerpc/32: Change the stack protector canary value per task") Fixes: 6533b7c16ee5 ("powerpc: Initial stack protector (-fstack-protector) support") Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
