What does the "cpu" directive in the kernel config actually do? In the
context of
a binary driver, is there a potential problem if the binary was compiled on
one
type of cpu and that cpu type was not specified in the target machine's
config?
(that is that the driver was compiled on a i586 and the target machine only
specified i686).

I suppose this has some relevance to loadable drivers as well.
