Actually, I think we could make this depend only on CONFIG_IO_36. That's
the only scenario where we get the supersections matter, and maybe make
CONFIG_IO_36 dependent on !SMP or !ARM_LPAE. My assumption is that we
don't support single zImage with CPU_XSC3 enabled (but I haven't
followed the latest developments here).
