Linux: Make __rseq_size useful for feature detection (bug 31965)
The __rseq_size value is now the active area of struct rseq (so 20 initially), not the full struct size including padding at the end (32 initially). Update misc/tst-rseq to print some additional diagnostics. Reviewed-by: Michael Jeanson <mjeanson@efficios.com> Reviewed-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com>
