Not a performance feature but more like correctness.
If kernel died and two CPUs raced to kernel stack overflow,
death post-mortem should be straightforward.

Pretty much the same exists for arm64 as well.
I don't see anything tricky here.

Why is per-cpu really complex here?
That's why per-cpu exists, right?
Compiler generates pretty much same code everywhere for C.

Yes I had been thinking over it and your point is quite valid.
There is a death's charge (in a corner case) to living structures
(particularly to all threads)
Andrew Bresticker (abrestic@rivosinc.com) suggested using `sscratch`
to spill into.
I think that makes sense.

I'll send a revised patch.
