This is just ugly. Could you please add something like HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE or something with a bettern name and let CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG select it for supported architectures and configurations (e.g. CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP doesn't need a special arch support, right?). These Todo things are just too messy. -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
