filter_irq_stacks() is too large to be inlined.

The CONFIG_STACKTRACE=n versions should be regular C functions, not
macros. But stacktrace.c decided to do them all as macros,
unfortunately.

in_irqentry_text() is probably too large to be inlined as well, and
should return bool.

Declarations for __irqentry_text_start and friends already exist in
include/asm-generic/sections.h (and, for some reason, also in
arch/arm/include/asm/traps.h) and should not be duplicated in
include/linux/stacktrace.h.
