Subject: [PATCH v2] MIPS: Fix minimum alignment requirement of IRQ stack

Commit db8466c581cc ("MIPS: IRQ Stack: Unwind IRQ stack onto task
stack") erroneously set the initial stack pointer of the IRQ stack to a
value with a 4 byte alignment. The MIPS32 ABI requires that the minimum
stack alignment is 8 byte, and the MIPS64 ABIs(n32/n64) require 16 byte
minimum alignment. Fix IRQ_STACK_START such that it leaves space for the
dummy stack frame (containing interrupted task kernel stack pointer)
while also meeting minimum alignment requirements.

Changes in v2:
Don't include asm/asm.h since the definitions in it lead to breakage
when it pollutes the C namespace (thanks kbuild test robot!)
