And just to add more info, considering a 128MB section granularity (which seems
to be what paric has) a PAGE_SIZE of 4KB (not really sure which page size parisc
can deal with), PAGES_PER_SECTION then being 32768 and the vmemmap range starting
at 0xffffea0000000000, we would have the following vmemmap layout:
0-3GB -> 0xffffea0000000000 - 0xffffea0003000000
4-32GB -> 0xffffea0004000000 - 0xffffea0007800000
259-260GB -> 0xffffea0023e00000 - 0xffffea0024e00000
I am not sure though whether we can hit any limitation when it comes to
the vmemmap space we have available.
