Right, so I don't think the stack protector is even ready that early -
we do set it up later:

        /* Set up %gs.
         *
         * The base of %gs always points to the bottom of the irqstack
         * union.  If the stack protector canary is enabled, it is
         * located at %gs:40.  Note that, on SMP, the boot cpu uses
         * init data section till per cpu areas are set up.
         */
        movl    $MSR_GS_BASE,%ecx
        movl    initial_gs(%rip),%eax
        movl    initial_gs+4(%rip),%edx
        wrmsr

so I think marking the function "no-stack-protector" is the only option
right now. We can always look at fixing that later.
