Tejun Heo 5c79d2a517 x86: fix x86_32 stack protector bugs
Impact: fix x86_32 stack protector

Brian Gerst found out that %gs was being initialized to stack_canary
instead of stack_canary - 20, which basically gave the same canary
value for all threads.  Fixing this also exposed the following bugs.

* cpu_idle() didn't call boot_init_stack_canary()

* stack canary switching in switch_to() was being done too late making
  the initial run of a new thread use the old stack canary value.

Fix all of them and while at it update comment in cpu_idle() about
calling boot_init_stack_canary().
