Yup, all my configs now build too (includes some of the distributed ones
with CONFIG_SMP turned off). I booted three sample kernels (zx1,
generic and generic with s/discontig/sparse/) on rx2620 with nothing
odd happening.

That would do as a starting point ... it gives me an easy hook
into my automatic build script to make sure that SPARSEMEM is being
test compiled.

Do you have, or can you generate, the full list of all the combinations
of memory model related options that Kconfig will accept?
