x86/lapic/secondary.S: Align stack for _secondary_start
At a process _start, the stack is expected to be aligned to a 16-byte boundary. Upon entry to any function the stack frame must have the end of any arguments also aligned. In other words the value of %esp+4 or %rsp+8 is always a multiple of 16 (1). Align the stack down inside _secondary_start and preserve proper alignment for the call to secondary_cpu_init. Although 4-byte alignment is the minimum requirement for i386, some AMD platforms use SSE instructions which expect 16-byte. 1) http://wiki.osdev.org/System_V_ABI See "Initial Stack and Register State" and "The Stack Frame" in the supplements.
