Some architectures (x86) control per-IRQ stacks via CONFIG_4KSTACKS, so
enabling that directive turns on 4K stacks and gives interrupts their
own stack.

NO. I did not say this. EACH PROCESS'S KERNEL STACK IS A PAGE OR TWO.
That is all I said.
The kernel can consume hundreds of megabytes of data if it wants.

thread_struct is kept in memory. Robert Love mentions that it is kept
at the "lowest" kernel address in case of x86 based platform. Could
