I think I've seen any combination of CONFIG_ISA (the 62/98 pin slots), CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA (the request_dma() interface) and
CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API (the set_dma_addr()/enable_dma() type interface),
but I agree that sparc should have none of the three as both
floppy and parport use some other interface.

I think it was part of the ISA DMA lookalike that got removed
in 334ae614772b ("sparc: Kill SBUS DVMA layer.") and should
have been changed back then.
