Subject: [PATCH v2] lkdtm/usercopy: Expand size of "out of frame" object

To be sufficiently out of range for the usercopy test to see the lifetime
mismatch, expand the size of the "bad" buffer, which will let it be
beyond current_stack_pointer regardless of stack growth direction.
Paired with the recent addition of stack depth checking under
CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY=y, this will correctly start tripping again.
