stackleak: Allow runtime disabling of kernel stack erasing
Introduce CONFIG_STACKLEAK_RUNTIME_DISABLE option, which provides 'stack_erasing' sysctl. It can be used in runtime to control kernel stack erasing for kernels built with CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK. Suggested-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Alexander Popov <alex.popov@linux.com> Tested-by: Laura Abbott <labbott@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>
