x86/shstk: Check that SSP is aligned on sigreturn

The shadow stack signal frame is read by the kernel on sigreturn. It
relies on shadow stack memory protections to prevent forgeries of this
signal frame (which included the pre-signal SSP). It also relies on the
shadow stack signal frame to have bit 63 set. Since this bit would not be
set via typical shadow stack operations, so the kernel can assume it was a
value it placed there.

However, in order to support 32 bit shadow stack, the INCSSPD instruction
can increment the shadow stack by 4 bytes. In this case SSP might be
pointing to a region spanning two 8 byte shadow stack frames. It could
confuse the checks described above.

Since the kernel only supports shadow stack in 64 bit, just check that
the SSP is 8 byte aligned in the sigreturn path.
