When the stack protector is enabled, compiler would generate code to check stack overflow with a special value called 'stack carary' at runtime. On x86_64, GCC hard-codes the stack canary as %gs:40. While there's a definition of fixed_percpu_data in asm/processor.h, it seems that the header is not included everywhere and many places it cannot find the type info. As it's in the well-known location (at %gs:40), let's add a pseudo stack canary type to handle it specially.
