Adding Mark Rutland to Cc, he's the one that worked on this area the most in the
past and should probably review your patch. I still feel like there
should be a way
to improve readability of the IRQ entry path rather than just adding another
level of indirection, but the ideas I had so far have not led to
anything useful.

Overall I suppose your version is an improvement over the extra double stack
switch when entering softirq.
