Subject: [PATCH 3.10 121/129] arm64: Change kernel stack size to 16K

3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Feng Kan <fkan@....com>

commit 845ad05ec31e0f3872a321e10dbeaf872022632c upstream.

Written by Catalin Marinas, tested by APM on storm platform. This is needed
because of the failures encountered when running SpecWeb benchmark test.
