Subject: [PATCH v3 08/19] x86/asm: Move SYSENTER_stack to the beginning of struct tss_struct

SYSENTER_stack should have reliable overflow detection, which
means that it needs to be at the bottom of a page, not the top.
Move it to the beginning of struct tss_struct and page-align it.

Also add an assertion to make sure that the fixed hardware TSS
doesn't cross a page boundary.
