From: Jann Horn <jannh@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit a5ec6ae161d72f01411169a938fa5f8baea16e8f ]
Force strict alignment checks for stack pointers because the tracking of
stack spills relies on it; unaligned stack accesses can lead to corruption
of spilled registers, which is exploitable.
Fixes: f1174f77b50c ("bpf/verifier: rework value tracking")
