Hmm, so this landed in linux-next today and I bisected a boot failure in
my CI to it. However, I am not really sure if it is a real issue worth
worrying about as the platform it triggered on is supposed to be using
SPARSEMEM, but isn't.
I had thought that my CI was using a config with SPARSEMEM since that
became required for riscv defconfig builds to boot in v6.1-rc1, but I
must have just forgotten to add it to my $platform_defconfig builds too.
However, those $platform_defconfig builds continued booting without
SPARSEMEM enabled until today.
for $platform_defconfig builds I now see the following, which is in turn
followed by an opps. The full output is at the bottom of this mail.

In my mind, there's a kernel misconfiguration issue, but it's not the
same splat as I used to get when using FLATMEM in this configuration:

Turning on SPARSEMEM fixes both problems, but I'm just not sure if there
is some underlying issue here that I don't know enough about the area to
understand.

Thanks,
Conor.
