This one's a little harder - you use a 84 byte gap on each sigreturn, no 
matter what the frame size we need to restore. The original 
mangle_kernel_stack() only makes room on the stack when it has no other 
option (using twice as much size - correct me if I'm wrong).

Ideally, we'd only leave a gap for mangle_kernel_stack() to use if the 
frame size requires us to do so. Working that out in asm glue would be 
sufficiently convoluted as to cancel out the benefits of cleaning up the 
C sigreturn part. Probably not worth it.

Looking at how likely it is that we'll see multiple pending signals, I'd 
say from the frequency of the resulting panic messages in the past four 
years it's quite rare. I've never seen these faults on anything but a 
fully loaded system running some sort of stress test. OTOH, the 
pathological case of exception frame (mid-instruction access fault) is 
expected when we might want to send a segfault signal, which may happen 
anytime.

On balance, I think the extra stack use will occur rare enough and the 
benefit of cleaning up mangle_kernel_stack() outweighs that.
