* 'x86-irq-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip:
  x86, 32-bit: Align percpu area and irq stacks to THREAD_SIZE
  x86: Move alloc_desk_mask variables inside ifdef
  x86-32: Align IRQ stacks properly
  x86: Remove CONFIG_4KSTACKS
  x86: Always use irq stacks

Fixed up trivial conflicts in include/linux/{irq.h, percpu-defs.h}

Used for external hardware interrupts. If this is the first external
hardware interrupt (i.e. not a nested hardware interrupt) then the
kernel switches from the current task to the interrupt stack. Like
the split thread and interrupt stacks on i386 (with CONFIG_4KSTACKS),
this gives more room for kernel interrupt processing without having
to increase the size of every per thread stack.

The interrupt stack is also used when processing a softirq.
