There's only one CONFIG_GROWSUP arch - parisc.

Guys, here's the rolled-up patch.  Could someone please test it on
parisc?

err, I'm not sure what one needs to do to test it, actually. 
Presumably it involves setting an unusual `ulimit -s'.  Can someone
please suggest a test plan?




From: Michael Neuling <mi...@neuling.org>

When reserving stack space for a new process, make sure we're not
attempting to expand the stack by more than rlimit allows.

This fixes a bug caused by b6a2fea39318e43fee84fa7b0b90d68bed92d2ba ("mm:
variable length argument support") and unmasked by
fc63cf237078c86214abcb2ee9926d8ad289da9b ("exec: setup_arg_pages() fails
to return errors").

This bug means that when limiting the stack to less the 20*PAGE_SIZE (eg. 
80K on 4K pages or 'ulimit -s 79') all processes will be killed before
they start.  This is particularly bad with 64K pages, where a ulimit below
1280K will kill every process.
