  With the addition of -fstrict-flex-arrays=3, struct sha256_state's
trailing array is no longer ignored by CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE:

struct sha256_state {
        u32 state[SHA256_DIGEST_SIZE / 4];
        u64 count;
        u8 buf[SHA256_BLOCK_SIZE];
};

This means that the memcpy() calls with "buf" as a destination in
sha256.c's code will attempt to perform run-time bounds checking, which
could lead to calling missing functions, specifically a potential
WARN_ONCE, which isn't callable from purgatory.

Perhaps this is indicative of other issues in RISC-V land, but
allmodconfig complains about this patch:

../lib/string.c:17: warning: "__NO_FORTIFY" redefined
../lib/string.c:17:9: warning: preprocessor token __NO_FORTIFY redefined

Argh, thanks. My compile test clearly failed. I'll fix this up.
