Helge Deller f31b256994 parisc: Fix stack start for ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE personality
Fix the stack start address calculation for the parisc architecture in
setup_arg_pages() when address randomization is disabled. When the
ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE process personality is disabled there is no need to add
additional space for the stack.
Note that this patch touches code inside an #ifdef CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP hunk,
which is why only the parisc architecture is affected since it's the
only Linux architecture where the stack grows upwards.

Without this patch you will find the stack in the middle of some
mapped libaries and suddenly limited to 6MB instead of 8MB:

root@parisc:~# setarch -R /bin/bash -c "cat /proc/self/maps"

With the patch the stack gets correctly mapped at the end
of the process memory map:

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
