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).
