I'd still like someone with a CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP arch to test/ACK it
as well.
There's only one CONFIG_GROWSUP arch - parisc.
Could someone please test it on parisc?
How about doing:
'ulimit -s 15; ls'
before and after the patch is applied. Before it's applied, 'ls' should
be killed. After the patch is applied, 'ls' should no longer be killed.
I'm suggesting a stack limit of 15KB since it's small enough to trigger
20*PAGE_SIZE. Also 15KB not a multiple of PAGE_SIZE, which is a trickier
case to handle correctly with this code.
4K pages on parisc should be fine to test with.

When reserving stack space for a new process, make sure we're not
attempting to expand the stack by more than rlimit allows.
This fixes a bug caused by b6a2fea39318e43fee84fa7b0b90d68bed92d2ba ("mm:
variable length argument support") and unmasked by
fc63cf237078c86214abcb2ee9926d8ad289da9b ("exec: setup_arg_pages() fails
to return errors").
This bug means that when limiting the stack to less the 20*PAGE_SIZE (eg.
80K on 4K pages or 'ulimit -s 79') all processes will be killed before
they start. This is particularly bad with 64K pages, where a ulimit below
1280K will kill every process.
