x86/signal: Implement sigaltstack size validation
For historical reasons MINSIGSTKSZ is a constant which became already too
small with AVX512 support.
Add a mechanism to enforce strict checking of the sigaltstack size against
the real size of the FPU frame.
The strict check can be enabled via a config option and can also be
controlled via the kernel command line option 'strict_sas_size' independent
of the config switch.
Enabling it might break existing applications which allocate a too small
sigaltstack but 'work' because they never get a signal delivered. Though it
can be handy to filter out binaries which are not yet aware of
AT_MINSIGSTKSZ.
Also the upcoming support for dynamically enabled FPU features requires a
strict sanity check to ensure that:
- Enabling of a dynamic feature, which changes the sigframe size fits
into an enabled sigaltstack
- Installing a too small sigaltstack after a dynamic feature has been
added is not possible.
Implement the base check which is controlled by config and command line
options.
