This aligns the stack pointer in chacha20_4block_xor_ssse3 to 64 bytes.
Fixes general protection faults and potential kernel panics.

I assumed 16-byte alignment according to the System V AMD64 ABI, but
this is obviously not true with -mpreferred-stack-boundary=3. The AVX2
version seems to be ok, so is Poly1305.

Patch applied.  Thanks!
