I noticed at least sh is broken
because "arch/sh/mm/Kconfig" is no longer included by anyone.

I am not doing further tests.


Please test *ALL* architectures.

If possible, matrix tests (arch, config-target), where
arch = arm, arm64, ...
config-target = allyesconfig, allnoconfig, alldefconfig, ...


Note:
scripts/diffconf is helpful.
