x86: Always use irq stacks 

IRQ stacks provide much better safety against unexpected stack use from
interrupts, at the minimal downside of slightly higher memory usage.
Enable irq stacks also for the default 8k stack on 32-bit kernels to
minimize the problem of stack overflows through interrupt activity.

This is what the 64-bit kernel and various other architectures already do.

Used for external hardware interrupts. If this is the first external
hardware interrupt (i.e. not a nested hardware interrupt) then the
kernel switches from the current task to the interrupt stack. Like
the split thread and interrupt stacks on i386 (with CONFIG_4KSTACKS),
this gives more room for kernel interrupt processing without having
to increase the size of every per thread stack.

The interrupt stack is also used when processing a softirq.

If you say Y here the kernel will use a 4Kb stacksize for the
kernel stack attached to each process/thread. This facilitates
running more threads on a system and also reduces the pressure
on the VM subsystem for higher order allocations. This option
will also use IRQ stacks to compensate for the reduced stackspace.
