When deciding about the huge DMA window, the typical Linux pseries guest
uses the maximum allowed RAM size as the upper limit. We did the same
on QEMU side to match that logic. Now we are going to support GPU RAM
pass through which is not available at the guest boot time as it requires
the guest driver interaction. As the result, the guest requests a smaller
window than it should. Therefore the guest needs to be patched to
understand this new memory and so does QEMU.
Instead of reimplementing here whatever solution we will choose for
the guest, this advertises the biggest possible window size limited by
32 bit (as defined by LoPAPR).
This seems to be safe as:
1. The guest visible emulated table is allocated in KVM (actual pages
are allocated in page fault handler) and QEMU (actual pages are allocated
when changed);
2. The hardware table (and corresponding userspace addresses cache)
supports sparse allocation and also checks for locked_vm limit so
it is unable to cause the host any damage.
