Subject: [PATCH] autofs-5.1.7 - use default stack size for threads
References: bsc#1189199

autofs uses PTHREAD_STACK_MIN to set the stack size for threads it
creates.

In two cases it is used to reduce the stack size for long running
service threads while it's used to allocate a larger stack for worker
threads that can have larger memory requirements.

In recent glibc releases PTHREAD_STACK_MIN is no longer a constant
which can lead to unexpectedly different stack sizes on different
architectures and the autofs assumption it's a constant causes a
compile failure.

The need to alter the stack size was due to observed stack overflow
which was thought to be due the thread stack being too small for autofs
and glibc alloca(3) usage.

Quite a bit of that alloca(3) usage has been eliminated from autofs now,
particularly those that might be allocating largish amounts of storage,
and there has been a lot of change in glibc too so using the thread
default stack should be ok.
