So, what's the point of the IRQ stack-depth check, again? Especially with 4k stacks and separate IRQ stacks? And the more deterministic max-stack-depth excursion checker (CONFIG_DEBUG_STACK_USAGE) as well...
Finally, the patch I sent upstream would clearly show on an oops whether or not the stack was currently overflowing, or whether the stack had ever overflowed prior to the oops. Seemed useful to me.
Just to satisfy my curiosity, can you post a link to the patch?
