[PATCH] uml: fix compilation and execution with hardened GCC
To make some half-assembly stubs compile, disable various "hardened" GCC
features:
*) we can't make it build PIC code as we need %ebx to do syscalls and GCC
wants it free for PIC
*) we can't leave stack protection as the stub is moved (not relocated!) in
memory so the RIP-relative access to the canary tries reading from an
unmapped address and causes a segfault, since we move the stub of various
megabytes (the exact amount will be decided at runtime) away from the
link-time address.
