PowerPC fixes 5.1-3: CONFIG_SPARSEMEM doesn't exist in the kernel source code

Hi All,

I wasn't able to compile the RC2 today because of the following error 
messages:

The variable MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS isn't defined. The problem is in the 
last PowerPC fixes 5.1-3: 
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?h=v5.1-rc2&id=a5ed1e96cafde5ba48638f486bfca0685dc6ddc9

configurations

 #endif

The first if statement isn't successfull because the variables 
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME and CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES aren't activated in 
our kernel configuration. Therefore we need MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS 46 for 
our Nemo board. Unfortunately CONFIG_SPARSEMEM doesn't exist in the 
kernel source code so we can't activate it in the kernel config.

I replaced '#elif defined(CONFIG_SPARSEMEM)' with '#else' and after 
that the compiling of the RC2 works again.

Please check if CONFIG_SPARSEMEM exists.

Thanks,
Christian
