[PATCH (sh-2.6) 1/2] sh: add stack smashing protection support

Add stack smashing suppurt for SH architecture. This is based on work
from Nicolas Pitre for ARM (c743f38013aeff58ef6252601e397b5ba281c633).
Use the ARM boot_init_stack_canary function to initialize the guard
canary. It has been placed under asm-generic to allow archtectures
based on __stack_chk_guard to use a common implementation.
Update the __stack_chk_guard global variable with the value stored in
the task struct whenever a task switch occurs to allow for different
canary values per task. This cannot work on SMP where the initial
canary value is always used.

+ This option turns on the -fstack-protector GCC feature. This

+ the stack just before the return address, and validates
+ the value just before actually returning. Stack based buffer
+ overflows (that need to overwrite this return address) now also
+ overwrite the canary, which gets detected and the attack is then
+ neutralized via a kernel panic.
+ This feature requires gcc version 4.2 or above.
