Subject[5/6] dynamically allocate IRQ stacks (was: Re: [-mm patch] i386: enable 4k stacks by default)

Fix up the conflict between IRQ stacks and deep stacks by dynamically
allocating IRQ stacks.

config 64KSTACKS
bool "Use 64KB for kernel stacks"
- depends on !IRQSTACKS
help
If you say Y here, the kernel will use a 64KB stacksize.
This impedes running more threads on a system and also increases
