The patch titled
fix-corruption-of-memmap-on-ia64-sparsemem-when-mem_section-is-not-a-power-of-2 fix
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
fix-corruption-of-memmap-on-ia64-sparsemem-when-mem_section-is-not-a-power-of-2-fix.patch
This patch was dropped because it was folded into fix-corruption-of-memmap-on-ia64-sparsemem-when-mem_section-is-not-a-power-of-2.patch

This error is due to a bad interaction between
generic-virtual-memmap-support-for-sparsemem.patch and
fix-corruption-of-memmap-on-ia64-sparsemem-when-mem_section-is-not-a-power-of-2.patch
. Functions that are needed whether CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is set are
not are depending on CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP . This breaks on arch/sh
for example where SPARSEMEM may be set but not NUMA.
