    x86/traps: improve hypervisor stack overflow detection
    
    A sample Gentoo compliation of Xen contains
    
        lea    -0x1058(%rsp),%rsp
        orq    $0x0,(%rsp)
        lea    0x1020(%rsp),%rsp
    
    Whatever the reason for silly code like this, it fools the current stack
    overflow detection logic in the #DF handler (which triggers reliably on the
    'orq' instruction).
    
    Update the overflow condition to declare an overflow if %esp is anywhere
    within the guard page, rather than just within the upper 8th of the page.
    
    Additionally, check %esp against the expected stack base in all builds.
