The cost of the switch is fairly trivial, so performance-wise I would expect
that to fall within the noise. So if this is just about avoiding the extra
switch, I'd prefer to leave this as-is.

If we want to move more work after the stack switch, I think we'd want a more
in depth rethink of the structure of this code (since e.g. we could make the
common case have almost everything on the IRQ stack, at the cost of making
preemption require more work).

Thanks,
Mark.
