The shadow stack could overflow if it is not big enough. However since the
normal stack has return addresses and data, and shadow stack has the smaller
amount data of only return addresses, we can mostly avoid this by picking a
large size for the shadow stack.
For underflow, you can't return from the point where you enable shadow stack.
Almost all uses will enable it very early. Glibc loader does it before main is
reached, for example. The shadow stack selftest is not a typical usage in this
respect.
