Hi all!

As part of the VAMOS[0] research project at the University of
Erlangen we are looking at multiple integrity errors in linux'
configuration system.

When considering the restrictions inposed in kconfig 64BIT
will *always* be set when DISCONTIGMEM is present on parisc so the
code path depending on !64BIT is actually unreachable and the whole
check unnecessary.

Please keep me informed of this patch getting confirmed /
merged so we can keep track of it.

Regards

Christoph Egger

Subject: [PATCH] on parisc CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM always depends on CONFIG_64BIT

Removing a conditional on 64BIT inside a DISCONTIGMEM block inside
arch/parisc. DISCONTIGMEM depends on ARCH_DISCONTIGMEM_ENABLE either
directly or through DISCONTIGMEM_MANUAL which in turn depends on 64BIT
inside Kconfig so the check and the else case isn't needed at all (the
else case can't ever be reached)
