From: Thomas Gleixner <t...@linutronix.de>
The recursion protection for hard interrupt stacks is an unsigned int per
CPU variable initialized to -1 named __irq_count.
The irq stack switching is only done when the variable is -1, which creates
worse code than just checking for 0. When the stack switching happens it
uses this_cpu_add/sub(1), but there is no reason to do so. It simply can
use straight writes. This is a historical leftover from the low level ASM
code which used inc and jz to make a decision.
Rename it to hardirq_stack_inuse, make it a bool and use plain stores.
