Subject: ARM: net: bpf: fix stack alignment

From: Russell King <[email protected]>

commit d1220efd23484c72c82d5471f05daeb35b5d1916 upstream.

As per 2dede2d8e925 ("ARM EABI: stack pointer must be 64-bit aligned after a CPU exception") the stack should be aligned to a 64-bit boundary on EABI systems. Ensure that the eBPF JIT appropraitely aligns the stack.
