           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.
