This is Zach's code, his final call.  I know it was pretty useful early
on, and used to be an actual Kconfig option for VMI.  However, it's
completely disconnected; the setup call to vmi_apply_boot_page_allocations
isn't merged and the page->type field isn't either (no surprise on that),
and some of the VMI_PAGE_ constants have changed names.  Clearly, it is
ripe for bitrot (already has !CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES dependency,
dunno if VMI has the same limitation).  It definitely should not have
a misleading Kconfig name.  I'd nuke it all rather than #if 0.

thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] VMI: remove CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGE_TYPE and associated bitrotted code

From: Chris Wright <[email protected]>

Remove the poorly named (non Kconfig) CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGE_TYPE compile
time conditional as well as the associated bitrotted debug code.
