With the UM_SIGNAL alignment fault mode, no siginfo structure is
passed to userspace.

POSIX specifies how siginfo_t should be populated for alignment
faults, so this patch does just that:

  * si_signo = SIGBUS
  * si_code = BUS_ADRALN
  * si_addr = misaligned data address at which access was attempted

Signed-off-by: Dave Martin <dave.martin@linaro.org>

v2: si_addr in siginfo_t changed to contain the faulting data
    access address, not the address of the faulting instruction.

    This behaviour is consistent with the way other fault signals
    such as SIGSEGV are already reported, as well as matching the
    apparent intent of the POSIX sigaction interface.

Makes sense.  ACK.
