The value of ident_map_size could never exceed the value of vmemmap as secured by setup_kernel_memory_layout() function: /* make sure identity map doesn't overlay with vmemmap */ ident_map_size = min(ident_map_size, vmemmap_start); Since VMEM_MAX_PHYS macro is set to vmemmap and a newly added range is checked against ident_map_size in add_memory_merged() function anyway, the check against VMEM_MAX_PHYS is redundant.

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 Restructured Text 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.
