The #ifdef is probably not necessary here, simply checking that
base/size can be represented in a phys_addr_t is enough.

A similar printk as arm_add_memory for this one too?

                printk(KERN_CRIT "Truncating memory at 0x%08llx to fit in "
                        "32-bit physical address space\n", (long long)start);
