From 7fbbd5cbebf118a9e09f5453f686656a167c3d1c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Lutomirski Date: Mon, 4 Dec 2017 15:07:27 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] x86/entry/64: Remove the SYSENTER stack canary Now that the SYSENTER stack has a guard page, there's no need for a canary to detect overflow after the fact.
