Testing the fortified string functions[1] would cause a kernel
panic on boot in test_feature_fixups() due to a buffer overflow
in memcmp.

This boils down to things like this:

  extern unsigned int ftr_fixup_test1;
  extern unsigned int ftr_fixup_test1_orig;

  check(memcmp(&ftr_fixup_test1, &ftr_fixup_test1_orig, size) == 0);

We know that these are asm labels so it is safe to read up to
'size' bytes at those addresses.

However, because we have passed the address of a single unsigned
int to memcmp, the compiler believes the underlying object is in
fact a single unsigned int. So if size > sizeof(unsigned int),
there will be a panic at runtime.

We can fix this by changing the types: instead of calling the asm
labels unsigned ints, call them unsigned int[]s. Therefore the
size isn't incorrectly determined at compile time and we get a
regular unsafe memcmp and no panic.

With this patch on top of Kees' fortify branch, my Tuleta boots 
powernv_defconfig baremetal with no obvious regressions.

Tested-by: Andrew Donnellan <andrew.donnellan@au1.ibm.com>

Patch looks sane enough too.
