How's that

        /*
         * Prevent tail call to cpu_startup_entry() because the stack protector
         * guard has been changed a couple of functions up, in
         * boot_init_stack_canary() and must not be checked before tail calling
         * another function.
         */
        asm ("");

?

Not to check the guard. See the beginning of
arch/x86/include/asm/stackprotector.h about how they work.

No such attribute in gcc yet. But yes, this came up a bit upthread, you
can go back in time for details. :)

Thx.
