The patch titled Subject: zboot: fix stack protector in compressed boot phase has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was zboot-fix-stack-protector-in-compressed-boot-phase.patch This patch was dropped because it had testing failures ------------------------------------------------------ From: Huacai Chen <chenhc@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: zboot: fix stack protector in compressed boot phase Calling __stack_chk_guard_setup() in decompress_kernel() is too late because stack checking always fails for decompress_kernel() itself. So remove __stack_chk_guard_setup() and initialize __stack_chk_guard at compile time. Original code comes from ARM but also used for MIPS and SH, so fix them together. Without this fix, compressed booting of these archs will fail because stack checking is enabled by default (>=4.16).
