It's because ia64 box doesn't need /memory/probe, it's not configured.
It is designed for powerpc at el. ia64 is considered to use acpi for hotplug.

if you want "probe" interface for your test. Add  followings to your
/arch/ia64/Kconfig.

config ARCH_MEMORY_PROBE
        def_bool y
        depends on MEMORY_HOTPLUG

we (me and Goto) use above one and emulation codes for acpi in usual.

Thanks,
