[POWERPC] Add IRQSTACKS support on ppc32
This makes it possible to use separate stacks for hard and soft IRQs
on 32-bit powerpc as well as on 64-bit. The code for 32-bit is just
the 32-bit analog of the 64-bit code.
* Added allocation and initialization of the irq stacks. We limit the
stacks to be in lowmem for ppc32.
* Implemented ppc32 versions of call_do_softirq() and call_handle_irq()
to switch the stack pointers
* Reworked how we do stack overflow detection. We now keep around the
limit of the stack in the thread_struct and compare against the limit
to see if we've overflowed. We can now use this on ppc64 if desired.
[ paulus@samba.org: Fixed bug on 6xx where we need to reload r9 with the
thread_info pointer. ]
