(Get the code!)
This is a stupid testcase, the failure should be ignored.
The glibc values for MINSIGSTKSZ and SIGSTKSZ must be large enough to cover all known kernels, so that user programs will run on any kernel and with any usage of vmx, htm and whatever else changes context size.
The values in the kernel on the other hand are for testing whether a given binary will run on that kernel. In the absence of knowledge regarding whether a binary makes use of htm or vsx, the kernel values must be the minimum allowed on all known kernels. Otherwise an old binary that doesn't make use of vsx or htm will no longer run on a new kernel.
