x86_64 uses 2M page table entries to map its 1-1 kernel space.
We also implement the virtual memmap using 2M page table entries. So
there is no additional runtime overhead over FLATMEM, initialisation
is slightly more complex. As FLATMEM still references memory to
obtain the mem_map pointer and SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP uses a compile
time constant, SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP should be superior.
With this SPARSEMEM becomes the most efficient way of handling
virt_to_page, pfn_to_page and friends for UP, SMP and NUMA on x86_64.
