What do you mean by "RM limits"?  We have constants in the kernel that
both define the maximum number of blocks in these arrays and a
predefined set of ids that block can have.  These are all used in
constant structs in the catalog, so there's nothing "software" or
SoC-specific limiting about this (except what is available in the
arrays).

Yep, that's the only reason

If so an out-of-bounds constant was hardcoded in dpu_hw_catalog.c.

I'll whip up a patch to clear out the extraneous lookup (assuming there
is no other reason/dependency for it to be there...) and can follow that
up with removing these range checks of known-good values in `const
struct` fields.
