Subject: sigaltstack: support SS_AUTODISARM for CONFIG_COMPAT

From: Stas Sergeev <stsp@list.ru>

commit 441398d378f29a5ad6d0fcda07918e54e4961800 upstream.

Currently SS_AUTODISARM is not supported in compatibility mode, but does
not return -EINVAL either.  This makes dosemu built with -m32 on x86_64
to crash.  Also the kernel's sigaltstack selftest fails if compiled with
-m32.

This patch adds the needed support.
