You're right. The intro explains things more clearly. This breaks
platforms (at boot time) that don't select SPARSE_IRQ, but let users
enable it in their config. I don't understand why sparse irq is a user
visible config option. We could move HAVE_SPARSE_IRQ down to each
platform that selects SPARSE_IRQ and prevent enabling, but I think
allowing it to break is good encouragement for others to fix those
platforms. I'm open to other ideas.
