When the SP is used as the base address of a calculation, regardless of any offset applied by the instruction, if bits [3:0] of the SP are not 0b0000, there is a misaligned SP.
To fix it, align the stack with 16 bytes.

The arm64 alignment requirement is correct, but I don't really grok what this code is trying to do. If it's not using CLONE_VM, why bother passing a separate stack? If it _is_ using CLONE_VM, then surely the stack needs to be allocated somewhere other than the caller stack?
