vmemmap is forcefully set to start at MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS at most.
That could be needed in the past to limit ident_map_size to
MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS. However since commit 75eba6ec0de1 ("s390:
unify identity mapping limits handling") ident_map_size is
limited in setup_ident_map_size() function, which is called
earlier.
Another reason to limit vmemmap start to MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS is
because it was returned by arch_get_mappable_range() as the
maximum mappable physical address. Since commit f641679dfe55
("s390/mm: rework arch_get_mappable_range() callback") that
is not required anymore.
As result, there is no neccessity to limit vmemmap starting
address with MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
