Re: [PATCH v3 01/11] mm/sparse-vmemmap: introduce CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP_OPTIMIZATION

From: Mike Rapoport <rppt@kernel.org>

Hi,
The section-based vmemmap optimization infrastructure is still guarded by
CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE_OPTIMIZE_VMEMMAP, but it also can be used by device
DAX. Introduce CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP_OPTIMIZATION as a common config
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP_OPTIMIZATION is a bit mouthful :)

I think that dropping _SPARSEMEM won't hurt readability.
quoted hunk ↗ jump to hunk
for the shared infrastructure.

Select the new option from HUGETLB_PAGE_OPTIMIZE_VMEMMAP and from
DEV_DAX when the architecture opts in to DAX vmemmap optimization, and
use it to guard the generic sparse-vmemmap state and helpers.
