x86: Fix early boot crash on gcc-10

Fix a boot failure where the kernel is built with gcc-10 with stack
protector enabled by default:

  Kernel panic — not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: start_secondary
  CPU: 1 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/1 Not tainted 5.6.0-rc5—00235—gfffb08b37df9 #139
  Hardware name: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. To be filled by O.E.M./H77M—D3H, BIOS F12 11/14/2013
  Call Trace:
    dump_stack
    panic
    ? start_secondary
    __stack_chk_fail
    start_secondary
    secondary_startup_64
  -—-[ end Kernel panic — not syncing: stack—protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: start_secondary

This happens because start_secondary() is responsible for setting
up initial stack canary value in smpboot.c but nothing prevents gcc
from inserting stack canary into start_secondary() itself before the
boot_init_stack_canary() call which sets up said canary value.

Inhibit the stack canary addition for start_secondary() only.
