Title:
  Stack Clash fix breaks JVM when launched from C

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have tested only with linux 4.10.0-24-generic on amd64. The attached
  repro case:

  - compiles a java class
  - compiles a C program that initialises the JVM and calls a static method 
from the java class
  - launch the compiled C program.

  Expected result:
  the c program should execute the Java method and print some numbers in the 
terminal

  Actual result:
  the c program segfaults while initialising the JVM

  reverting to linux 4.10.0-22-generic amd64 fixes the problem. Since
  the only change in the changelog is the Stack Clash fix and since I
  remember reading that the JVM does tricky stuff with the stack, this
  is a natural culprit.

  It touches any program that initialises a JVM (so for instance Java
  bindings in Postgresql or Java applets in firefox although the latter
  have been deprecated and are only supported in firefox ESR now).

  I attach the repro-case.
  The issue happens with both openjdk-8-jdk from the repository and the 
standard jdk 8 from oracle.
