Peter,

Back in August 2011, I had a pull request to make the irq stack of
i386 more like the x86_64 code. There seemed to be acceptance back
then and you said you would even pull it after the merge window.
But due to your travels it was forgotten (and I forgot about it too).

http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20110806011102.721109343@goodmis.org

I stumbled on these changes again and noticed that they were never
applied so I forward ported them with a few more adjustments.

Hopefully they are still worth pulling. This time I waited till after
the merge window to post :-)

  Repost with removing the first patch:
   "x86: Do not differentiate between x86_64 and i386 with init_per_cpu"
  as requested by Brian Gerst
]

Thomas, Ingo, and Peter(s),

On IRC, Peter Zijlstra mentioned to me the difference between
32bit and 64bit x86 on how thread_info is handled with interrupts.
I mentioned that they should be more the same, and Peter agreed.

I decided to do so, and ended up with the following patches.
I marked this for v3.2 as it should be tested a bit before going into
mainline. I've ran several configs on it, but more testing should be done.

Some of the patches are clean ups, but the main ones are patch 3 and 4
that do the work to convert 32bit of thread_info to be more like
the 64bit.
