Stupid me. No it does of course not. I could have sworn that I tested that,
but obvioulsy not.
I drop that patch, but actually the real question is whether we can drop that
'#ifdef x86' around that boot_init_stack_canary() invocation.
AFAICT, neither arm, arm64 nor mips and sh call it on anything else than the
boot cpu. I can't see why that would be an issue on those architectures and
why it would be a problem if the boot cpu calls it again here.
CC'ed the relevant maintainers. Is there any issue with the patch below?
Thanks,
tglx
