lguest: fix guest kernel stack overflow when TF bit set.
The symptoms are that running gdb on a binary causes the guest to overflow the kernels stack (after some period of time), resulting in it finally being killed with a "Bad address" message. Reported-by: Sakari Ailus <sakari.ailus@iki.fi> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
