The current_thread_info() macro, used by preempt_count(), assumes the
base address and size of the stack are THREAD_SIZE aligned.

The emergency stack currently isn't either of these things, which
could potentially cause problems anytime we're running on the
emergency stack.  That includes when we detect a bad kernel stack
pointer, and also during early_setup_secondary().
