Commit 3fb0fdb3bbe7 ("x86/stackprotector/32: Make the canary into a regular percpu variable") modified the stackprotector check on 32-bit x86 to check if gcc supports using %fs as canary. Adjust dummy-tools gcc script to pass this new test by returning "%fs" rather than "%gs" if it detects -mstack-protector-guard-reg=fs on command line.
