Spotted, thanks.

arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/Makefile contains:

CFLAGS_bootx_init.o  		+= -fPIC

Does it mean we should add -lssp_nonshared to LDFLAGS_vmlinux ?

Or maybe stack protection on bootx_init doesn't make much sense and we 
could just do the following ?

CFLAGS_bootx_init.o  		+= -fPIC $(call cc-option, -fno-stack-protector)
