futex: Ensure that futex address is aligned in handle_futex_death()
The futex code requires that the user space addresses of futexes are 32bit
aligned. sys_futex() checks this in futex_get_keys() but the robust list
code has no alignment check in place.
As a consequence the kernel crashes on architectures with strict alignment
requirements in handle_futex_death() when trying to cmpxchg() on an
unaligned futex address which was retrieved from the robust list.
[ tglx: Rewrote changelog, proper sizeof() based alignement check and add
comment ]
Fixes: 0771dfefc9e5 ("[PATCH] lightweight robust futexes: core")
