[PATCH V4] ZBOOT: fix stack protector in compressed boot phase

Call __stack_chk_guard_setup() in decompress_kernel() is too late that
stack checking always fails for decompress_kernel() itself. So remove
__stack_chk_guard_setup() and initialize __stack_chk_guard before we
call decompress_kernel().

Original code comes from ARM but also used for MIPS and SH, so fix them
together. If without this fix, compressed booting of these archs will
fail because stack checking is enabled by default (>=4.16).

V1 -> V2: Fix build on ARM.
V2 -> V3: Fix build on SuperH.
V3 -> V4: Initialize __stack_chk_guard in C code as a constant.
