alpha: switch from DISCONTIGMEM to SPARSEMEM
Patch series "arch, mm: deprecate DISCONTIGMEM", v2.
It's been a while since DISCONTIGMEM is generally considered deprecated,
but it is still used by four architectures. This set replaces
DISCONTIGMEM with a different way to handle holes in the memory map and
marks DISCONTIGMEM configuration as BROKEN in Kconfigs of these
architectures with the intention to completely remove it in several
releases.
While for 64-bit alpha and ia64 the switch to SPARSEMEM is quite obvious
and was a matter of moving some bits around, for smaller 32-bit arc and
m68k SPARSEMEM is not necessarily the best thing to do.
On 32-bit machines SPARSEMEM would require large sections to make section
index fit in the page flags, but larger sections mean that more memory is
wasted for unused memory map.
Besides, pfn_to_page() and page_to_pfn() become less efficient, at least
on arc.
So I've decided to generalize arm's approach for freeing of unused parts
of the memory map with FLATMEM and enable it for both arc and m68k. The
details are in the description of patches 10 (arc) and 13 (m68k).
This patch (of 13):
Enable SPARSEMEM support on alpha and deprecate DISCONTIGMEM.
The required changes are mostly around moving duplicated definitions of
page access and address conversion macros to a common place and making sure
they are available for all memory models.
The DISCONTINGMEM support is marked as BROKEN an will be removed in a
couple of releases.
