Thanks for your reply. Will this issue be solved soon? Is it a
hardware issue or a software one?
A combination. I think a Software fix is possible.
Can I make the 4G-256M memory
reserved so that kernel will not try to allocate memory in this area?
I have never tried it.
The issue is maintaining mappings for 32-bit PCI devices. If you only
want to support 64-bit devices, it would be easier to address the issue.

can not use more than 4G ram is bothersome since the memory is so cheap now. :-)
Thanks very much.

This is a known issue.
passing mem==3072M will restrict kernel memory usage thus avoiding the
issue.
