exec: simplify initial stack size expansion 

I had a hard time trying to understand completely why it is using vm_end in
one side of the expression and vm_start in the other one, and using
something in the "if" clause that is not an exact copy of what is used
below. The whole point is that the stack_size variable that was used in the
"if" clause is the difference between vm_start and vm_end, which is not far
away but makes this thing harder to read than it must be.
