Subject: [PATCH v2 1/6] x86: Remove stack protector test scripts
Date:   Tue, 30 Nov 2021 15:55:44 -0500

For 64-bit, this test for the stack protector was added in 2006 to
make sure the compiler had the PR28281 patch applied.  With GCC 5.1
being the minimum supported compiler now, this test is no longer
necessary.

For 32-bit, testing for compiler option support can be done directly
in Kconfig.
