Re: [PATCH v2] ARM: socfpga: Fix crash with CONFIG_FORTIRY_SOURCE

From: Dinh Nguyen

Hi Iwai,

Should this have the following tag:

Fixes: 9c4566a117a6 ("ARM: socfpga: Enable SMP for socfpga")

As well?

When CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE is set, memcpy() checks the potential
buffer overflow and panics. The code in sofcpga bootstrapping
contains the memcpy() calls are mistakenly translated as the shorter
size, hence it triggers a panic as if it were overflowing.

This patch changes the secondary_trampoline and *_end definitions
to arrays for avoiding the false-positive crash above.

v1->v2: Use arrays for trampoline area instead of hackish workaround
with __NO_FORTIFY
