x86: Remove CONFIG_4KSTACKS

Browse source 
These days 4 kilobytes of stack just aren't enough for reliably operation,
and people using lots of threads have long switched to 64-bit kernels, so
remove the CONFIG_4KSTACKS option.

If in doubt, say "N"

depends on X86_32
---help---
If you say Y here the kernel will use a 4Kb stacksize for the
kernel stack attached to each process/thread. This facilitates
running more threads on a system and also reduces the pressure
on the VM subsystem for higher order allocations.
