selftests/x86/sigreturn/64: Fix spurious failures on AMD CPUs
When I wrote the sigreturn test, I didn't realize that AMD's busted IRET behavior was different from Intel's busted IRET behavior: On AMD CPUs, the CPU leaks the high 32 bits of the kernel stack pointer to certain userspace contexts. Gee, thanks. There's very little the kernel can do about it. Modify the test so it passes.
