If it weren't a debug feature I would definitely agree with you, but I
think being a debug feature it's not so necessary. Also anything with
more memory than the config option specifies will still boot - it's just
less memory that won't boot. I've set the default to 1024MB: I know
that's a lot of memory for an embedded system but I think for anything
with the Radix MMU it's an OK default.

I'm sure if mpe disagrees he can add EXPERT when he's merging :)

That's a good idea. Done.

Thanks for the review!
