Probably not. On arm64, the registers are stacked by software at
exception entry, and so we decrement the sp first by the size of the
register file, and if the resulting value overflows the stack, the
situation is handled as if the exception was caused by a faulting
stack access while it may be caused by something else in reality.
Since the act of handling the exception is guaranteed to overflow the
stack anyway, this does not really make a huge difference, and it
prevents the recursive fault from wiping the context that we need to
produce the diagnostics.
This means an illegal access right above the stack will go undetected.
