find_cpio_data() is called by the 32-bit x86 microcode loader while
paging is not yet enabled and the CPU is running off physical addresses.
However, when stack protector is enabled, the compiler adds the stack
protection check for this function:

  c1846480 <find_cpio_data>:
  c1846480:       55                      push   %ebp
  c1846481:       89 e5                   mov    %esp,%ebp
  c1846483:       57                      push   %edi
  ...

  c1846676:       e9 85 fe ff ff          jmp    c1846500 <find_cpio_data+0x80>
  c184667b:       e8 20 9e 02 00          call   c18704a0 <__stack_chk_fail>

which cannot work yet.

Prevent that from happening.
