powerpc: Unconditionally enabled irq stacks
Irq stacks provide an essential protection from stack overflows through external interrupts, at the cost of two additionals stacks per CPU. Enable them unconditionally to simplify the kernel build and prevent people from accidentally disabling them.

- If you say Y here the kernel will use separate kernel stacks
- for handling hard and soft interrupts. This can help avoid
