Always enable pointer guard [BZ #18928]
Honoring the LD_POINTER_GUARD environment variable in AT_SECURE mode
has security implications. This commit enables pointer guard
unconditionally, and the environment variable is now ignored.
[BZ #18928]
* sysdeps/generic/ldsodefs.h (struct rtld_global_ro): Remove
_dl_pointer_guard member.
* elf/rtld.c (_rtld_global_ro): Remove _dl_pointer_guard
initializer.
(security_init): Always set up pointer guard.
(process_envvars): Do not process LD_POINTER_GUARD.
(cherry picked from commit a014cecd82b71b70a6a843e250e06b541ad524f7)
