The change fixes boot failure on physical machine where 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+0x191/0x1a0
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+0x71/0xa0
  panic+0x107/0x2b8
  ? start_secondary+0x191/0x1a0
  __stack_chk_fail+0x15/0x20
  start_secondary+0x191/0x1a0
  secondary_startup_64+0xa4/0xb0
-—-[ end Kernel panic — not syncing: stack—protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: start_secondary+0x191
```

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 `boot_init_stack_canary()` call.

The fix inhibits stack canary check foa single `start_secondary()`
function.

Tested the change by successfully booting the machine.
