+ This enables support for sparse irqs. This is useful in general
+ as most CPUs have a fairly sparse array of IRQ vectors, which
+ the irq_desc then maps directly on to. Systems with a high
+ number of off-chip IRQs will want to treat this as
+ experimental until they have been independently verified.
+
+ If you don't know what to do here, say N.
