This patch fix two issues in the procfs stack information on X86_64 linux.
The 32 bit loader compat_do_execve did not store stack start (this was figured out by alexey).
The stack information on a X64_64 kernel always show 0 kbyte stack usage, because of a miss implemented KSTK_ESP macro which always return -1. The new implementation returns now the right value.
The patch is against 2.6.32-rc5-git5.
Andrew would you so kind to apply this patch?
Greetings, Stefani
