Impact: fix redundant and incorrect check

Oleg Nesterov noticed wrt commit:

  14fc9fb: x86: signal: check signal stack overflow properly

>> No need to check SA_ONSTACK if we're already using alternate signal stack.

> "if (!onsigstack)",

Checking on_sig_stack() in sas_ss_flags() at get_sigframe() is redundant
and not correct on 64 bit. To check sas_ss_size is enough.
