This patchset adds support for syscall stack randomization for
powerpc, which can make harder the various stack-based attacks that
rely on deterministic stack structure.

Changes in v3:
  -add a lead-up patch to move system_call_exception() to syscall.c to
  avoid disabling stack protector for all functions in interrupt.c
Changes in v2:
  -move choose choose_random_kstack_offset() to the end of system_call_exception
  -allow full 6 (10) bits of entropy
  -disable stack-protector for interrupt.c

[...]
Applied to powerpc/next.
