x86/irq/64: Adjust the per CPU irq stack pointer by 8
The per CPU hardirq_stack_ptr contains the pointer to the irq stack in the form that it is ready to be assigned to [ER]SP so that the first push ends up on the top entry of the stack. But the stack switching on 64 bit has the following rules: 1) Store the current stack pointer (RSP) in the top most stack entry to allow the unwinder to link back to the previous stack 2) Set RSP to the top most stack entry 3) Invoke functions on the irq stack 4) Pop RSP from the top most stack entry (stored in #1) so it's back to the original stack. That requires all stack switching code to decrement the stored pointer by 8 in order to be able to store the current RSP and then set RSP to that location. That's a pointless exercise. Do the -8 adjustment right when storing the pointer and make the data type a void pointer to avoid confusion vs. the struct irq_stack data type which is on 64bit only used to declare the backing store. Move the definition next to the inuse flag so they likely end up in the same cache line. Sticking them into a struct to enforce it is a seperate change.
