[release-branch.go1.15] runtime: correct signature of call16 The signature of call16 is currently missing the "typ" parameter. This CL fixes this. This wasn't caught by vet because call16 is defined by macro expansion (see #17544), and we didn't notice the mismatch with the other call* functions because call16 is defined only on 32-bit architectures and lives alone in stubs32.go. Unfortunately, this means its GC signature is also wrong: the "arg" parameter is treated as a scalar rather than a pointer, so GC won't trace it and stack copying won't adjust it. This turns out to matter in exactly one case right now: on 32-bit architectures (which are the only architectures where call16 is defined), a stack-allocated defer of a function with a 16-byte or smaller argument frame including a non-empty result area can corrupt memory if the deferred function grows the stack and is invoked during a panic. Whew. All other current uses of reflectcall pass a heap-allocated "arg" frame (which happens to be reachable from other stack roots, so tracing isn't a problem). Curiously, in 2016, the signatures of all call* functions were wrong in exactly this way. CL 31654 fixed all of them in stubs.go, but missed the one in stubs32.go. Updates #41795. Fixes #41797.
