Validating the abort_ip field of rseq_cs ensures that the kernel don't
return to an invalid address when returning to userspace after an abort.
I don't fully trust each architecture code to cleanly deal with invalid
return addresses.
Validating the range [ start_ip, start_ip + post_commit_offset ] is an
extra validation step ensuring that userspace provides valid values to
describe the critical section.
If validation fails, the process is killed with a segmentation fault.
Change the rseq ABI so rseq_cs start_ip, post_commit_offset and abort_ip
fields are seen as 64-bit fields by both 32-bit and 64-bit kernels rather
that ignoring the 32 upper bits on 32-bit kernels. This ensures we have
a consistent behavior for a 32-bit binary executed on 32-bit kernels and
in compat mode on 64-bit kernels.
