x86, 32-bit: Align percpu area and irq stacks to THREAD_SIZE
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The irq stacks, located in the percpu-area, need to be
THREAD_SIZE aligned. Add the infrastucture to align percpu
variables to larger-than-pagesize amounts within the percpu
area, and use it to specify the alignment for the irq stacks.
Also align the percpu area itself to THREAD_SIZE.

This should make irq stacks work with 8K THREAD_SIZE.
