powerpc/irq: Run softirqs off the top of the irq stack
Nowadays, irq_exit() calls __do_softirq() pretty much directly instead of calling do_softirq() which switches to the decicated softirq stack. This has lead to observed stack overflows on powerpc since we call irq_enter() and irq_exit() outside of the scope that switches to the irq stack. This fixes it by moving the stack switching up a level, making irq_enter() and irq_exit() run off the irq stack. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
