[PATCH] sparsemem extreme implementation
With cleanups from Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com>
SPARSEMEM_EXTREME makes mem_section a one dimensional array of pointers to
mem_sections. This two level layout scheme is able to achieve smaller
memory requirements for SPARSEMEM with the tradeoff of an additional shift
and load when fetching the memory section. The current SPARSEMEM
implementation is a one dimensional array of mem_sections which is the
default SPARSEMEM configuration. The patch attempts isolates the
implementation details of the physical layout of the sparsemem section
array.
SPARSEMEM_EXTREME requires bootmem to be functioning at the time of
memory_present() calls. This is not always feasible, so architectures
which do not need it may allocate everything statically by using
SPARSEMEM_STATIC.
