[PATCH] kbuild: Provide way to actually disable stack protector

[Kees Cook]

Some builds of GCC enable stack protector by default. Simply removing
the arguments is not sufficient to disable stack protector, as the stack
protector for those GCC builds must be explicitly disabled. (Removing the
arguments is left as-is just to be sure there are no ordering problems. If
-fno-stack-protector ended up _before_ -fstack-protector, it would not
disable it: GCC uses whichever -f... comes last on the command line.)

Fixes: 20355e5f73a7 ("x86/entry: Exclude low level entry code from sanitizing")
