Mike Rapoport 214496cb18 ia64: make SPARSEMEM default and disable DISCONTIGMEM
SPARSEMEM memory model suitable for systems with large holes in their
phyiscal memory layout. With SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP enabled it provides
pfn_to_page() and page_to_pfn() as fast as FLATMEM.

Make it the default memory model for IA-64 and disable DISCONTIGMEM which
is considered obsolete for quite some time.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
