[PATCH] select: don't overflow if (SELECT_STACK_ALLOC % sizeof(long) …

…!= 0)

If SELECT_STACK_ALLOC is not a multiple of sizeof(long) then stack_fds[]
would be shorter than SELECT_STACK_ALLOC bytes and could overflow later in
the function.  Fixed by simply rearranging the test later to work on
sizeof(stack_fds) Currently SELECT_STACK_ALLOC is 256 so this doesn't
happen, but it's nasty to have things like this hidden in the code.  What
if later someone decides to change SELECT_STACK_ALLOC to 300?
