MIPS: r4k,octeon,r2300: stack protector: change canary per task
For non-SMP, uses the new random canary value that is stored in the
task struct whenever a new task is forked. Based on ARM version in
df0698be14c6683606d5df2d83e3ae40f85ed0d9 and subject to the same
limitations: the variable GCC expects, __stack_chk_guard, is global,
so this will not work on SMP.
Quoting Nicolas Pitre <nico@fluxnic.net>: "One way to overcome this
GCC limitation would be to locate the __stack_chk_guard variable into
a memory page of its own for each CPU, and then use TLB locking to
have each CPU see its own page at the same virtual address for each of
them."
