H A DKconfig.assembler18e66b69 Mon Jun 12 19:10:32 CDT 2023 Rick Edgecombe <rick.p.edgecombe@intel.com> x86/shstk: Add Kconfig option for shadow stack

Shadow stack provides protection for applications against function return
address corruption. It is active when the processor supports it, the
kernel has CONFIG_X86_SHADOW_STACK enabled, and the application is built
for the feature. This is only implemented for the 64-bit kernel. When it
is enabled, legacy non-shadow stack applications continue to work, but
without protection.

Since there is another feature that utilizes CET (Kernel IBT) that will
share implementation with shadow stacks, create CONFIG_CET to signify
that at least one CET feature is configured.
