But also in this case the code in the first stanza is only applicable to
SPARSEMEM EXTREME, therefore its also logical to say
Well I don't think so. Please show me which part of this code is
_only_ applicable to EXTREME.
The only thing that makes it applicable to EXTREME is not in the code
but rather in the Kconfig script:
config SPARSEMEM_EXTREME
def_bool y
depends on SPARSEMEM && !SPARSEMEM_STATIC
