[IA64] align signal-frame even when not using alternate signal-stack
At the moment, attempting to invoke a signal-handler on the normal stack is guaranteed to fail if the stack-pointer happens not to be 16-byte aligned. This is because the signal-trampoline will attempt to store fp-regs with stf.spill instructions, which will trap for misaligned addresses. This isn't terribly useful behavior. It's better to just always align the signal frame to the next lower 16-byte boundary. Signed-off-by: David Mosberger-Tang <David.Mosberger@acm.org> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
