This change is making it almost impossible for me to pass external CFLAGS
without forcefully disabling the automatic detection of stackprot. I need
to do it for some archs (e.g. "-march=armv5t -mthumb") or even to change
optimization levels.

I figured that the simplest way to recover that functionality for me
consists in using a dedicated variable to assign stack protector per
supported architecure and concatenating it to the per-arch CFLAGS like
this:

  diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/nolibc/Makefile b/tools/testing/selftests/nolibc/Makefile
  index 543555f4cbdc..bbce57420465 100644

  -               $(CFLAGS_$(ARCH))
  +               $(CFLAGS_STKP_$(ARCH)) $(CFLAGS_$(ARCH))
   LDFLAGS := -s
   
   help:

And now with this it works again for me on all archs, with all of them
showing "SKIPPED" for the -fstackprotector line except i386/x86_64 which
show "OK".

Are you OK with this approach ? And if so, do you want to respin it or
do you want me to retrofit it into your 3 patches that introduce this
change (it's easy enough so I really don't care) ?

Thanks!
Willy
