Bug description:
  Hi,
  I've happened to find this breaking a qemu build that was breaking like:

  
  c -MMD -MP -MT linuxboot_dma.o -MF ./linuxboot_dma.d -O2 -g -march=i486 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wredundant-decls -Wundef -Wwrite-strings -Wmissing-prototypes -Wformat -Werror=format-security -Wdate-time -Wold-style-declaration -Wold-style-definition -Wtype-limits -Wformat-security -Wformat-y2k -Winit-self -Wignored-qualifiers -Wempty-body -Wnested-externs -Wendif-labels -Wexpansion-to-defined -Wimplicit-fallthrough=2 -Wno-missing-include-dirs -Wno-shift-negative-value -Wno-psabi -fno-pie -ffreestanding -I/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/pc-bios/optionrom//../../include   -fno-stack-protector   -m16   -Wa,-32 -c /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/pc-bios/optionrom/linuxboot_dma.c -o linuxboot_dma.o
  cc1: error: ‘-fcf-protection’ is not compatible with this target                 

  As usual this looks complex but it can be reduced to your favorite C
  hello world.

  It should work if you build it with:
    $ cc -Wall -Werror test.c -o test.o

  But the following will fail:
    $ cc -Wall -Werror -march=i486 -m16 test.c -o test.o
  cc1: error: ‘-fcf-protection’ is not compatible with this target

  
  This is some of the always crazy boot blobs that virtualization needs here and there - and I hope I can resolve it for qemu in the build. But in general while I think the fcf default (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ToolChain/CompilerFlags#A-fcf-protection) is ok, it should not be default on arch combinations where it can never work.
