x86/unwind: Ensure stack pointer is aligned
With frame pointers disabled, on some older versions of GCC (like
4.8.3), it's possible for the stack pointer to get aligned at a
half-word boundary:
00000000000004d0 <fib_table_lookup>:
4d0: 41 57 push %r15
4d2: 41 56 push %r14
4d4: 41 55 push %r13
4d6: 41 54 push %r12
4d8: 55 push %rbp
4d9: 53 push %rbx
4da: 48 83 ec 24 sub $0x24,%rsp
In such a case, the unwinder ends up reading the entire stack at the
wrong alignment. Then the last read goes past the end of the stack,
hitting the stack guard page:
BUG: stack guard page was hit at ffffc900217c4000 (stack is ffffc900217c0000..ffffc900217c3fff)
kernel stack overflow (page fault): 0000 [#1] SMP
...
Fix it by ensuring the stack pointer is properly aligned before
unwinding.
