The patch titled
sparsemem: make SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP selectable
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
sparsemem-make-sparsemem_vmemmap-selectable.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: sparsemem: make SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP selectable
From: Geoff Levand <geoffrey.levand@xxxxxxxxxxx>
SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP needs to be a selectable config option to support
building the kernel both with and without sparsemem vmemmap support. This
selection is desirable for platforms which could be configured one way for
platform specific builds and the other for multi-platform builds.
