Ok, a grep shows that possible culprits (i.e. giving success to
grep GENERIC_HARDIRQS arch/*/Kconfig, and using 0x4000000 as PREEMPT_ACTIVE,
as given by grep PREEMPT_ACTIVE include/asm-*/thread_info.h) are (at a first
glance): frv, sh, sh64.

After a bit of checking, I also verified if they had overriden the value of
HARDIRQ_BITS. Which they haven't (it seems it's defined exactly where
CONFIG_HARDIRQS is not used, i.e. nobody is using the ability to override it
currently).

This was not a very deep investigation, however, so feel free to verify this
better.
