[patch 23/38] Improved kernel stack overflow checking.

[Martin Schwidefsky]

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@xxxxxxxxxx>

Recent cvs versions of gcc have support for an improved stack overflow
checking that calculates the size of the guard size for each function.
If the compiler accepts -mstack-size without -mstack-guard then the
new stack check is available. We always want to use the new stack
checker.
