[PATCH v2 5/9] mm: remove CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM

Mike Rapoport rppt at kernel.org
Thu Jun 3 23:49:12 PDT 2021


From: Mike Rapoport <rppt at linux.ibm.com>

There are no architectures that support DISCONTIGMEM left.

Remove the configuration option and the dead code it was guarding in the
generic memory management code.
