Christoph Hellwig 7974891db2 x86: Always use irq stacks
IRQ stacks provide much better safety against unexpected stack use from
interrupts, at the minimal downside of slightly higher memory usage.
Enable irq stacks also for the default 8k stack on 32-bit kernels to
minimize the problem of stack overflows through interrupt activity.

This is what the 64-bit kernel and various other architectures already do.
