Ok, see the previous email, this should just be a single

    select IRQ_EXIT_ON_IRQ_STACK

in under the "config X86_64" header in arch/x86/Kconfig.

And as of right now, this patch series should do it for Power too,
since I just merged Ben's branch, which contained commit 0366a1c70b89
("powerpc/irq: Run softirqs off the top of the irq stack"). Again,
just a single select in the arch/powerpc/Kconfig gile should be
sufficient.
