Right. The fix is trivial as the hardware size check in this validation
function is pointless.

The point is that for a range allocation with and entries array, _all_
entries up to max_vec must be correct independent of the actual hardware
size.

So the fix is simply removing the hardware size check from the
validation function.

The hardware size checking happens afterwards anyway.

Thanks,
