Ah, "both".

(LONGEST)-1 is typically 0xffffffffffffffffLL so unless an ISA has a 
64-bit insn there won't be a clash.

	* tramp-frame.h (TRAMP_SENTINEL_INSN): Define, document.
	* tramp-frame.c: Include "gdb_assert.h".
	(tramp_frame_start): Use TRAMP_SENTINEL_INSN.  Use ULONGEST and
	correct sizeof.
	(tramp_frame_append): Validate the tramp frame's instructions.
	* Makefile.in (tramp-frame.o): Update dependencies.
