Subject: [PATCH 4.4 01/58] parisc: Increase thread and stack size to 32kb

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

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

From: Helge Deller <deller@....de>

commit 8f8201dfed91a43ac38c899c82f81eef3d36afd9 upstream.

Since kernel 4.11 the thread and irq stacks on parisc randomly overflow
the default size of 16k. The reason why stack usage suddenly grew is yet
unknown.
