It is generic. If you would put the components into each arch then you
would needlessly duplicate code. In order to rip stuff out we first
need to have sparsemem contain all the features of discontig.

Then we can start to get rid of discontig and then we will be able to
reduce the number of memory models supported by sparsemem.
