Marcel, you already know my opinion that I don't agree with this change.
I don't think you are going to update the code once new architecture
arrive. This change also reduces thread stack size for already existing
architectures (arm and mips).
I'd prefer to either commit my patch that protects against passing stack
size smaller than the default on given architecture or commit what we
have in HEAD.
