[PATCH] uml: fix signal frame alignment

Browse Source 
Use the same signal frame alignment calculations as the underlying
architecture.  x86_64 appeared to do this, but the "- 8" was really
subtracting 8 * sizeof(struct rt_sigframe) rather than 8 bytes.

UML/i386 might have been OK, but I changed the calculation to match
i386 just to be sure.
