Currently arm64 allows a choice of FLATMEM, SPARSEMEM and SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP. However, only the latter is tested regularly. FLATMEM does not seem to boot in certain configurations (guest under KVM with Qemu as a VMM). Since the reduction of the SECTION_SIZE_BITS to 27 (4K pages) or 29 (64K page), there's little argument against the memory wasted by the mem_map array with SPARSEMEM. Make SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP the only available option, non-selectable, and remove the corresponding #ifdefs under arch/arm64/.

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.
