The RNG always mixes in the Linux version extremely early in boot. It
also always includes a cycle counter, not only during early boot, but
each and every time it is invoked prior to being fully initialized.
Together, this means that the use of additional xors inside of the
various stackprotector.h files is superfluous and over-complicated.
Instead, we can get exactly the same thing, but better, by just calling
`get_random_canary()`.

This is a basic -fstack-protector support without per-task canary
switching. The protector will report something like when stack
corruption is detected:
It's tested with strcpy local array overflow in sys_kill and get:
stack-protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: sys_kill+0x23c/0x23c
TODO:
- Support task switch for different cannary
