Subject: [PATCH 2/9] arc: update comment about HIGHMEM implementation

From: Mike Rapoport <[email-masked]>

From: Mike Rapoport <[email-masked]>

Arc does not use DISCONTIGMEM to implement high memory, update the comment
describing how high memory works to reflect this.

 	 * Even with PAE, the huge peripheral space hole would waste a lot of

+	 * to the hole is freed and ARC specific version of pfn_valid()
