[PATCH] riscv: panic from init_IRQ if IRQ handler stacks cannot be allocated

init_irq_stacks() and init_irq_scs() may fail when arch_alloc_vmap_stack
or scs_alloc return NULL. Return -ENOMEM from both and call panic() once
from init_IRQ(), covering per-CPU IRQ stacks and shadow IRQ stacks
consistently.
