For UML, you should probably add the prototype to a good header inside

The stack randomization patches that went into 2.6.11-rc3-mm1 broke
compilation of ARCH=um. This patch fixes compiling by adding
arch_align_stack back in.

These patches also depend onto the just sent-and-merged (in the BitKeeper

The previous ifdef to check whether to use the host's vsyscall page

When a page fault occurs on an address below the stack-vma,
UML tries to expand the stack.
On i386 and x86_64, the failing address is compared to the
current userspace stack pointer. If the failing address is

This fixes a bug which assumes that __binary_start starts on a page
boundary, which isn't true when UML is configured to load into the normal
executable area.

Hm, this is just wrong. As I recall, LANANA is in charge of the major
