INIT_FILELEN_MAX is the maximum shell size that can be passed by user.
FASTRPC_INITLEN_MIN is the minimum initmem length for PD.

The passed filelen is actually the size of fastrpc shell. This size is not sufficient for the user
PD initialization. The 4x of filelen gives the approx. needed memory for signed PD initialization.
Yes, filelen is measured in bytes.
