Patch from Nicolas Pitre
The ARM EABI says that the stack pointer has to be 64-bit aligned for
reasons already mentioned in patch #3101 when calling C functions.
We therefore must verify and adjust sp accordingly when taking an
exception from kernel mode since sp might not necessarily be 64-bit
aligned if the exception occurs in the middle of a kernel function.
If the exception occurs while in user mode then no sp fixup is needed as
long as sizeof(struct pt_regs) as well as any additional syscall data
stack space remain multiples of 8.
