[PATCH 2/4] powerpc/stackprotector: work around stack-guard init from atomic

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior
Date: Wed Mar 27 2019 - 14:33:37 EST


This is invoked from the secondary CPU in atomic context. On x86 we use
tsc instead. On Power we XOR it against mftb() so lets use stack address
as the initial value.
