Michal reported a stack-protector failure and subsequent panic when
running kernel builds. This was observed with full/lazy preemption.
Initially it was suspected as KVM, but later turned out to be due
to a bcc tool running in parallel.

Issue was recreated using a bcc tool.
For example, running below in parallel leads to crash.
./funccount sched* -d 100 and make -j 64

Applied to powerpc/next.
