Thanks for submitting this!
Add a size check for allcation since the allocation size is
nit: "allocation" above.
always less than the total DRAM size.
In general, it might be good to add more context to the commit message
to better answer *why* this change is needed rather than what the
change is doing. ie: What negative thing happens without this change?
And so how does this change avoid or improve things?
Completely agree, just one little addition: Could you also add this why
as comment to the code?
When we stumble over this five years from now it is absolutely not
obvious why we do this.
Thanks,
Christian.

This seems sane. I know ION used to have some 1/2 of memory cap to
avoid unnecessary memory pressure on crazy allocations.
Could you send again with an improved commit message?
thanks
