The patch titled
     Subject: x86/vmemmap: drop handling of 1GB vmemmap ranges
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     x86-vmemmap-drop-handling-of-1gb-vmemmap-ranges.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
From: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@suse.de>
Subject: x86/vmemmap: drop handling of 1GB vmemmap ranges

There is no code to allocate 1GB pages when mapping the vmemmap range as
this might waste some memory and requires more complexity which is not
really worth.

Drop the dead code both for the aligned and unaligned cases and leave only
the direct map handling.
