STACK_TOP_MAX is aligned on a 32k boundary. When __bprm_mm_init()
creates an
initial stack for a process, it does so using STACK_TOP_MAX as the end
of the
vma. A process's arguments and environment information are placed on
the stack
and then the stack is relocated and aligned on a page boundary. When
using a 32
bit kernel with 64k pages, the relocated stack has the process's args
erroneously stored in the middle of the stack. This means that processes
receive no arguments or environment variables, preventing them from
running
correctly.
Fix this by aligning TASK_SIZE on a page boundary.

Can you check your math here. This doesn't seem correct.
Thanks for spotting that - it should have been:
(0x7fff8000UL & PAGE_MASK)
I'll do a v2 now.
FYI, TASK_SIZE was recently changed to 0x80000000UL in commit 7f8ca9cb1ed3 on
the linux-mips.org tree.
Thanks, I'll rebase.

Same here.
As above.
