    [SPARC64]: 8-byte align return value from compat_alloc_user_space()
    
    Otherwise we get a ton of unaligned exceptions, for cases such
    as compat_sys_msgrcv() which go:
    
    	p = compat_alloc_user_space(second + sizeof(struct msgbuf));
    
    and here 'second' can for example be an arbitrary odd value.
    
    Based upon a bug report from Jurij Smakov.
