Users report a white flickering screen on multiple systems that
is tied to having 64GB or more memory. When S/G is enabled pages
will get pinned to both VRAM carve out and system RAM leading to
this.
Until it can be fixed properly, disable S/G when 64GB of memory or
more is detected. This will force pages to be pinned into VRAM.
This should fix white screen flickers but if VRAM pressure is
encountered may lead to black screens. It's a trade-off for now.

v2->v3:
* Account for the VRAM carveout
v1->v2:
* Fix updating mode_info as well
