Planned to close JDK-8236569 as 'Won't Fix', as the issue was re-opened, we
give it another shot. As explained in the CSR review, we will only round-up the
stack size as required by the operating system. Test on Ubuntu shows that there
is no need to round-up, while some other Posix system might as explained in the
man page.
We round-up for MacOS as the document explicitly said that the size need to be
multiple of system page size. I also changed to use getpagesize() as you
suggested, although that's not needed.
