exec: create initial stack independent of PAGE_SIZE
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Currently we create the initial stack based on the PAGE_SIZE.  This is
unnecessary.

This creates this initial stack independent of the PAGE_SIZE.

It also bumps up the number of 4k pages allocated from 20 to 32, to
align with 64K page systems.
