[PATCH] ARM: stackprotector: prefer compiler for TLS based per-task protector

[Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>]

Currently, we implement the per-task stack protector for ARM using a GCC
plugin, due to lack of native compiler support. However, work is
underway to get this implemented in the compiler, which means we will be
able to deprecate the GCC plugin at some point.

In the meantime, we will need to support both, where the native compiler
implementation is obviously preferred. So let's wire this up in Kconfig
and the Makefile.
