Some architectures generate an _ in front of C symbols; things like
module loading and assembly files need to know about this.
+config HAVE_IRQ_EXIT_ON_IRQ_STACK
+ bool
+ help
+ Architecture doesn't only execute the irq handler on the irq stack
+ but also irq_exit(). This way we can process softirqs on this irq
+ stack instead of switching to a new one when we call __do_softirq()
+ in the end of an hardirq.
+ This spares a stack switch and improves cache usage on softirq
+ processing.
