But nothing in drivers/mfd ... the entry to the whole stack?

Did the threaded IRQ stuff ever get set up so that the top
level IRQ thread didn't have to hand off to another thread
each time?  (That's how the current stuff works.  One thread
calling out to each handler.)

If so, I'd like to see that be used here, rather than needlessly
spend all those pages on mostly-unused stacks.
