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.
