We're still supporting SH with an up-to-date kernel and userland in Debian, so
if your patch broke something, we will notice that soonish. This also applies
to ia64 and many other architectures.

So, if in doubt, there are folks in Debian which can test your kernel patch
if you fear that it breaks something.
