Subject: parisc: Increase thread and stack size to 32kb
From: Helge Deller <deller@xxxxxx>
commit 8f8201dfed91a43ac38c899c82f81eef3d36afd9 upstream.
Since kernel 4.11 the thread and irq stacks on parisc randomly overflow
the default size of 16k. The reason why stack usage suddenly grew is yet
unknown.
