kstack_end() is broken on interrupt stacks as they are not guaranteed to be
sized THREAD_SIZE and THREAD_SIZE aligned.

As SLAB seems not to be used much with debugging enabled and might just go
away completely according to:

  https://lkml.kernel.org/r/612f9b99-a75b-6aeb-cf92-7dc5421cd950@suse.cz

just remove the bogus code instead of trying to fix it.

V5: Remove the cruft.
V4: Make it actually work
V2: Made the code simpler to understand (Andy)
