[PATCH OBV] Fix stack buffer overflow in aarch64_extract_return_value


Hi,
I build GDB with -fsanitize=address, and run testsuite.  In
gdb.base/callfuncs.exp, I see the following error,

p/c fun1()
=================================================================^M
==9601==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: stack-buffer-overflow on address 0x7fffee858530 at pc 0x6df079 bp 0x7fffee8583a0 sp 0x7fffee858398

We are extracting return value from V registers (128 bit), but only
allocate X_REGISTER_SIZE-byte array, which isn't sufficient.  This
patch changes the array to V_REGISTER_SIZE.

It's ovbious.  I'll push it in.

	* aarch64-tdep.c (aarch64_extract_return_value):  Change array
	buf's length to V_REGISTER_SIZE.
