Some LPAE-capable systems may use a Device Tree containing
memory nodes that describe memory extending beyond the 4GB
physical address boundary. Ignore or truncate these memory
nodes on kernels that have not been built with LPAE
support, to prevent the extended physical addresses from
being truncated and aliasing with physical addresses below
the 4GB boundary.
