I don't really know, but from a quick look at this code, it seems like
this is only used by the process record code, and furthermore only like:

  if (record_full_arch_list_add_mem (rsp, AMD64_LINUX_redzone
				     + AMD64_LINUX_xstate
				     + AMD64_LINUX_frame_size))
    return -1;

These are defined as:

#define AMD64_LINUX_redzone    128
#define AMD64_LINUX_xstate     512
#define AMD64_LINUX_frame_size 560

which adds up to 1200, which maybe is also wrong (dunno), but at least
is larger and maybe (also dunno) harmless in this context.
