[PATCH v4 9/9] ARM: run softirqs on the per-CPU IRQ stack

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
Date: 2021-11-15 08:52:14
Subsystem: arm port, the rest · Maintainers: Russell King, Linus Torvalds

Now that we have enabled IRQ stacks, any softIRQs that are handled over
the back of a hard IRQ will run from the IRQ stack as well. However, any
synchronous softirq processing that happens when re-enabling softIRQs
from task context will still execute on that task's stack.

Since any call to local_bh_enable() at any level in the task's call
stack may trigger a softIRQ processing run, which could potentially
cause a task stack overflow if the combined stack footprints exceed the
stack's size, let's run these synchronous invocations of do_softirq() on
the IRQ stack as well.
