CML code uses three tab indentes. Also the way you do the config looks
rather strange. I'd rather ask for IBM NUMAQ support and imply NUMA &
DISCONTIGMEM support if set.  Also CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM_X86 looks like
an ugly workaround to me, all places where it is used should rather check
for one of CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM/CONFIG_NUMA/CONFIG_IBMNUMAQ.
(and CONFIG_IBMNUMAQ would better be named CONFIG_X86_NUMAQ, IMHO).

Umm, NUMA without SMP looks rather strange to me..

Dito for local APIC.
