Currently, IRQs are still handled on the kernel stack of the current
task on riscv platforms. If the task has a deep call stack at the time
of interrupt, and handling the interrupt also requires a deep stack,
it's possible to see stack overflow.

Before this patch, the stack_max_size of a v5.17-rc1 kernel running on
a lichee RV board gave:
~ # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/stack_max_size
3736

After this patch,
~ # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/stack_max_size
3176

We reduce the max kernel stack usage by 560 bytes!

From another side, after this patch, it's possible to reduce the
THREAD_SIZE to 8KB for RV64 platforms. This is especially useful for
those systems with small memory size, e.g the Allwinner D1S platform
which is RV64 but only has 64MB DDR.

since v1:
 - add __ro_after_init to the irq_stack[] array.
