microblaze: reserve the ABI argument-home area in the signal frame
The MicroBlaze procedure call standard reserves [r1+0] for the return
address and lets a callee store its incoming register arguments r5..r10
into the caller-provided home slots at [r1+4]..[r1+24]. When the kernel
enters a signal handler it sets r1 to point at struct rt_sigframe, whose
leading member is the siginfo prepared for the handler. A handler that
homes its arguments - which an unoptimised (-O0) build always does -
therefore overwrites the first 24 bytes of that siginfo, so an
SA_SIGINFO handler reads corrupted values. The stores stay within
siginfo (128 bytes) and do not reach the ucontext behind it.
Reserve the home area by making a seven-word gap -- the return-address
slot plus the six argument slots, 28 bytes -- the first member of struct
rt_sigframe, so the handler's argument stores land in scratch space
instead of clobbering siginfo.
Tested on qemu-system-microblazeel (petalogix-s3adsp1800) with the
uClibc-ng NPTL test suite: tst-timer4, tst-timer5, tst-mqueue5 and
tst-signal6 pass; before this change they failed because the handler
clobbered the signal frame.
