For those MMUs that have some form of bolt'd linear mapping (TLB) required its rare that one ever sets mem= smaller than the size of that mapping. However, on Book-E 64 parts the initial linear mapping is quite large (1G) so its quite reasonable that mem= is set smaller than that. We need to parse the command line for mem= limit and constrain the amount of memory we map initially by it if need be.
