x86: push old stack address on irqstack for unwinder
Impact: Fixes dumpstack and KDB on 64 bits
This re-adds the old stack pointer to the top of the irqstack to help
with unwinding. It was removed in commit d99015b1abbad743aa049b439c1e1dede6d0fa49
as part of the save_args out-of-line work.
Both dumpstack and KDB require this information.
