[PATCH] efi: Initialize canary to non-zero value

[Glenn Washburn]

The canary, __stack_chk_guard, is in the BSS and so will get initialized to
zero if it is not explicitly initialized. If the UEFI firmware does not
support the RNG protocol, then the canary will not be randomized and will
be used as zero. This seems like a possibly easier value to write by an
attacker. Initialize canary to static random bytes, so that it is still
random when there is not RNG protocol.
