[POWERPC] Add IRQSTACKS support on ppc32
This makes it possible to use separate stacks for hard and soft IRQs on 32-bit powerpc as well as on 64-bit. The code for 32-bit is just the 32-bit analog of the 64-bit code. * Added allocation and initialization of the irq stacks. We limit the stacks to be in lowmem for ppc32. * Implemented ppc32 versions of call_do_softirq() and call_handle_irq() to switch the stack pointers * Reworked how we do stack overflow detection. We now keep around the limit of the stack in the thread_struct and compare against the limit to see if we've overflowed. We can now use this on ppc64 if desired. [ paulus@samba.org: Fixed bug on 6xx where we need to reload r9 with the thread_info pointer. ] Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

If you say Y here the kernel will use separate kernel stacks
for handling hard and soft interrupts. This can help avoid
