You are probably right.

Below is now a first implementation to support IRQ stacks for parisc.

I booted it successfully on 32- and 64bit kernels. 
Uncommenting the WARN_ON_ONCE(1) will show that the stacks get activated.
As a nice feature we now have CONFIG_DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW as well, which
should help us to find the problematic functions (if there are any).

I have not tested it with my testcases yet, but if people want to play,
here it is...
