x86/signals: Add build-time checks to the siginfo compat code
There were at least 3 features added to the __SI_FAULT area of the siginfo struct that did not make it to the compat siginfo: 1. The si_addr_lsb used in SIGBUS's sent for machine checks 2. The upper/lower bounds for MPX SIGSEGV faults 3. The protection key for pkey faults There was also some turmoil when I was attempting to add the pkey field because it needs to be a fixed size on 32 and 64-bit and not have any alignment constraints. This patch adds some compile-time checks to the compat code to make it harder to screw this up. Basically, the checks are supposed to trip any time someone changes the siginfo structure. That sounds bad, but it's what we want. If someone changes siginfo, we want them to also be _forced_ to go look at the compat code. The details are in the comments.
