PowerPC is currently using asm-generic/hardirq.h which statically allocates an
NR_CPUS irq_stat array. Switch to an arch specific implementation which uses
per cpu data:

On a kernel with NR_CPUS=1024, this saves quite a lot of memory:

   text    data     bss      dec         hex    filename
8767938 2944132 1636796 13348866         cbb002 vmlinux.baseline
8767779 2944260 1505724 13217763         c9afe3 vmlinux.irq_cpustat

A saving of around 128kB.

Looks like some unrelated gunk slipped into this patch :-)

Cheers,

We need that to link :) 

kernel/irq/handle.c: In function ‘handle_bad_irq’:
kernel/irq/handle.c:43: error: implicit declaration of function ‘ack_bad_irq’

It's basically a copy of the fallback handler in the asm-generic hardirq.h
I'm happy to change it print "IRQ on fire" :)
