[v2,RESEND] LoongArch: Remove unused kernel stack padding
Commit Message
Kernel stack padding looks like obey MIPS o32 Calling Convention, as
LoongArch is inspired by MIPS and keep it. Remove it avoid not clear
code.

Just some improvement to the commit message so it's clearer:
"The current LoongArch kernel stack is padded as if obeying the MIPS o32
calling convention, signifying the port's MIPS lineage but no longer
making sense. Remove the padding for clarity."

I think this blank line between the "Link" and S-o-b tags could be removed.

Otherwise LGTM, assuming you have tested it before sending (I don't
currently have the capacity to immediately test this for you)...

Thanks, I'll improve it and send it later.

Emm, to be honest, I didn't do tests like LTP. I ususally do development
on CLFS-LoongArch while kernel has this patch. And it works normally.

For changes touching fundamental parts that make the system work at all,
like this, "it continues to boot and work" usually is enough for
confirming correctness. Although some harder test runs would certainly
be better ;-)
