Read the source:
-----------------
* NOTE: The meye device expects dma_addr_t size to be 32 bits
* (the toc must be exactly 1024 entries each of them being 4 bytes
* in size, the whole result being 4096 bytes). We're using here
* dma_addr_t for corectness but the compilation of this driver is
* disabled for HIGHMEM64G=y, where sizeof(dma_addr_t) != 4 !
-----------------

Of course, the actual hardware does exist only on C1V* Vaio Laptops,
which can accept at most 256 MB RAM, so the test is there in Kconfig
only to prevent 'make allyesconfig' and equivalents from spitting
warnings...
