CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL

5-level paging enables access to larger address space:
upto 128 PiB of virtual address space and 4 PiB of
physical address space.

It will be supported by future Intel CPUs.

A kernel with the option enabled can be booted on machines that
support 4- or 5-level paging.

See Documentation/x86/x86_64/5level-paging.rst for more
information.

Say N if unsure.
