ia64: forbid using VIRTUAL_MEM_MAP with FLATMEM
Virtual memory map was intended to avoid wasting memory on the memory map
on systems with large holes in the physical memory layout. Long ago it been
superseded first by DISCONTIGMEM and then by SPARSEMEM. Moreover,
SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP provide the same functionality in much more portable way.
As the first step to removing the VIRTUAL_MEM_MAP forbid it's usage with
FLATMEM and panic on systems with large holes in the physical memory
layout that try to run FLATMEM kernels.
