[IA64] bugfix stack layout upside-down

ia64 expects following vm layout:

== low memory
[register-stack grows up]
[memory-stack grows down]
== high memory

But the code assigns the base of the register stack at the
maximum stack size offset from the fixed address where the
stack *might* start.  Stack randomization will result in the
memory stack starting at a lower address than this, and if the
user has set a low stack limit with "ulimit -s", then you can
end up with the register stack above the memory stack (or if
you were very unlucky right on top of it!).

Fix: Calculate the base address for the register stack starting
from the actual address of the memory stack.
