Arvind Sankar ca14c996af x86/purgatory: Disable the stackleak GCC plugin for the purgatory
Since commit:

  b059f801a9 ("x86/purgatory: Use CFLAGS_REMOVE rather than reset KBUILD_CFLAGS")

kexec breaks if GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK=y is enabled, as the purgatory
contains undefined references to stackleak_track_stack.

Attempting to load a kexec kernel results in this failure:

  kexec: Undefined symbol: stackleak_track_stack
  kexec-bzImage64: Loading purgatory failed

Fix this by disabling the stackleak plugin for the purgatory.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
