[ Upstream commit 5c152c2f66f9368394b89ac90dc7483476ef7b88 ]

When arm64 signal context data overflows the base struct sigcontext it gets
placed in an extra buffer pointed to by a record of type EXTRA_CONTEXT in
the base struct sigcontext which is required to be the last record in the
base struct sigframe. The current validation code attempts to check this
by using GET_RESV_NEXT_HEAD() to step forward from the current record to
the next but that is a macro which assumes it is being provided with a
struct _aarch64_ctx and uses the size there to skip forward to the next
record. Instead validate_extra_context() passes it a struct extra_context
which has a separate size field. This compiles but results in us trying
to validate a termination record in completely the wrong place, at best
failing validation and at worst just segfaulting. Fix this by passing
the struct _aarch64_ctx we meant to into the macro.
