- Prevent sigaltstack out of bounds writes. The kernel unconditionally
writes the FPU state to the alternate stack without checking whether
the stack is large enough to accomodate it.
Check the alternate stack size before doing so and in case it's too
small force a SIGSEGV instead of silently corrupting user space data.
- MINSIGSTKZ and SIGSTKSZ are constants in signal.h and have never been
updated despite the fact that the FPU state which is stored on the
signal stack has grown over time which causes trouble in the field
when AVX512 is available on a CPU. The kernel does not expose the
minimum requirements for the alternate stack size depending on the
available and enabled CPU features.
ARM already added an aux vector AT_MINSIGSTKSZ for the same reason.
Add it to x86 as well
- A major cleanup of the x86 FPU code. The recent discoveries of XSTATE
related issues unearthed quite some inconsistencies, duplicated code
and other issues.
The fine granular overhaul addresses this, makes the code more robust
and maintainable, which allows to integrate upcoming XSTATE related
features in sane ways.

"Fixes and improvements for FPU handling on x86:
- Prevent sigaltstack out of bounds writes.
