The name is confusing: this is a base _and_ size.

When should this be used, and what is valid to point it at?

How does this play with memory carveouts (CMA, reserved-memory)?

When should I set this, given it is optional?

I'm somewhat lost trying to figure out this mapping. Am I not looking at
this in the right way, or is there any documentation which makes this
clearer?

Thanks,
