Ok, so, that bit is actually a bit nicer on 64 bits, where there's a
get_sigframe() that handles this and is called by setup_rt_frame (which
you renamed to handle_rt_signal64).

(Though the actual implementation of get_sigframe() could use some
cleanup).

I'll do a patch on top of yours making that bit common.

Cheers,
Ben.
